Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour

2-1/2 cups granulated sugar

2 teaspoons poppy seeds

1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

3 eggs

1-1/2 cups milk

1-1/2 cups oil

1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 teaspoons almond extract

Topping:

1 cup powdered sugar

ABOUT 2 Tablespoons milk

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour four 7X3 loaf pans. Line bottoms with parchment paper; set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, and salt; stir together well. Add eggs, milk, oil, vanilla, and almond, beating well. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.

Bake 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool cakes 10 minutes in pans on wire rack. Remove from pans and carefully remove parchment paper from bottoms. Place the cakes on a wire rack. In a small bowl, whisk together topping ingredients until smooth. Using a pastry brush, brush topping over tops of still hot loaves, allowing some to dribble over the edges.

Note: Cakes freeze well. Can also be made in a 12 C. (10-inch) Bundt pan. Just be sure to grease and flour it well.
