1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
3 c All-purpose flour
2 tb Poppy seeds
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt

almond extracts. Beat to blend. Combine and sift flour, poppy seeds,

Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake approximately 45 to 50 minutes,

juice and almond extract together in a small bowl to blend. Turn out
cake onto rack or cake platter. Spoon glaze over warm cake and allow
cake to cool completely before slicing.

Note: This poppy seed cake, which works in low or high altitudes
without adjustment, will keep a number of days in a covered container
on the counter top and freezes well unglazed. Serve it plain for
snacking, glazed for desserts or with orange slices for breadfast.
