This is a family recipe that I have had in my recipe box for years, but have never made. It comes from a very special cousin of my Dad’s who was an amazing baker and cook.
I have been making her Pumpkin Cookie recipe for Thanksgiving and Christmas for years. I will share that in a month or two when we get closer to the holiday season! I made the poppy seed bread this morning and it was absolutely delicious! Below is the recipe, I hope you try it and enjoy it as much as my family did!
INGREDIENTS:
- 3 C Flour
- 2 1/4 C Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Poppy Seeds
- 1 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 3 Eggs
- 1 1/2 C Milk
- 1 C Oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 1/2 Almond Extract
- 1 1/2 Butter Extract
Blend dry ingredients together in a bowl, then put wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
Put the dry ingredients in the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix altogether with an electric mixer for one minute.
Pour into six small loaf pans and bake at 350 degrees for 35 min. to 1 hr. (you’ll know they are done when they are lightly browned on the top and a toothpick comes out clean.)
GLAZE RECIPE:
- 1/4 C Orange Juice Concentrate
- 3/4 C Confectioner Sugar
Beat 1 minute and spoon over the hot bread!
