Poppyseed Bread - by Marsha via 766lord

3/4 c poppyseeds
13 oz. evap milk Soak poppyseeds for 2 hrs in 1/2 the evap.
2 c sugar
1 1/2 c oil
4 eggs
1 teaspoon almond flavoring (or more)
3 cups white flour
1 1/2 t baking powder
1 t salt
soak poppyseeds,beat sugar and oil. Add eggs and beat well. Add vanilla, add flour and dry ing. then add remaining milk and poppy seeds.
1/2 cup toasted almond chunks, add at last. Bake in greased pans for 1 1/2 hrs at 325...I would just make them into cupcakes or a 9x13 cake and frost it with a glaze. Its the best I have had.
The strusel topping on the pumpkin bread would be good on this, wouldnt it.Maybe with more toasted almonds mixed in.
