Poppyseed Bread

A few years ago my ex-neighbors Jeff and Carmen brought us this bread. And is was a must have, so I made a nuisance of myself. You'll see why.

Poppy Seed Bread

6 eggs, divided
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
1 cup + 2 Tbsp oil
1 1/2 tsp almond extract
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp butter extract
2 Tbsp poppy seeds
3 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder

Preheat 350. Mix 3 eggs, sugar, milk, oil, extracts, poppy seeds. Separately mix remaining 3 eggs, flour, salt and baking powder. Gradually add flour mixture to batter. Pour into 3 greased loaf pans. Bake @ 350 for 50 minutes.

Glaze:
1 1/2 tsp almond extract
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp butter extract
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup orange juice

Mix together, pour over bread while hot.
