A delicious and easy poppy seed bread made from scratch. Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds |
2 1/2 cups white sugar |
1 1/8 cups vegetable oil |
3 eggs |
1 1/2 cups milk |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon extract |
1/4 cup orange juice |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three 8x4 inch bread pans.
2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, salt, baking powder, poppy seeds and 2 1/2 cups white sugar. Add the eggs, milk, oil, vanilla and lemon extract; mix until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaves comes out clean. Cool loaves in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
4. Combine orange juice with remaining 3/4 cup sugar and desired flavor of extract; stir well. Pour this mixture over the loaf while it is still hot. Allow loaf to cool completely before serving.
