I found this recipe years ago. It really is the best bread recipe I have ever used! I absolutely love it!
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 c. 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
3. the eggs, milk, oil, vanilla and lemon extract; mix until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pans.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the
5. loaves comes out clean. Cool loaves in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
6. Combine orange juice with remaining 3/4 cup sugar and desired flavor of extract; stir well. Pour this mixture over
7. the loaf while it is still hot. Allow loaf to cool completely before serving.
