I make poppy seed bread about once a month. So one Christmas, I decided to make it a little more festive by stirring in some cranberries. My family loved the colorful addition. —Cindy Harmon, Stuarts Draft, Virginia
Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup milk
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed and chopped
icing:
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons milk
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, beat the egg, milk, butter, vanilla and lemon peel. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in cranberries.
2. Pour into a greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pan. Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely. Combine icing ingredients; drizzle over cooled loaf. Yield: 1 loaf (12 slices).
