1 1/8 C.oil
2 1/4 C. sugar
3 C. flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 C. milk
1 1/2 tsp. butter flavoring
1 1/2 tsp. almond flavoring
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla flavoring
1 1/2 T. poppy seeds

GLAZE:
1/4 C. orange juice
3/4 C. sugar
1/2 tsp. butter flavoring
1/2 tsp. almond flavoring
1/2 tsp. vanilla flavoring

Beat the eggs, oil and sugar together. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture alternately with the milk to the egg mixture. Add the flavorings and poppy seeds and mix well. Bake in 5 small or 2 large loaf pans at 350º for 1 hour. Pour glaze over warm bread.

GLAZE: Use half the glaze recipe for 1batch of bread - it’s enough glaze for a double batch.
