We hosted a beautiful wedding for our son, James, and his bride, Margret, and served these lovely loaves to their guests. The recipe came from a dear friend, Judie Tobin. Ingredients:
2-1/4 cups sugar |
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons canola oil |
3 eggs |
3 tablespoons poppy seeds |
1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
3 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1-1/2 cups 2% milk |
glaze: |
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, oil, eggs, poppy seeds, lemon juice and extracts; beat until well blended. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to sugar mixture alternately with milk, beating just until moistened. 2. Pour into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. 3. Combine glaze ingredients until smooth; drizzle over warm loaves. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 loaves (16 slices each). |
