Orange Poppy Seed Cake

2 c Flour

1/4 ts Salt

1 c Soft butter

1 c Sugar

1 tb Grated orange peel

5 Eggs, room temperature

-----------------------------------GLAZE----------------------------------- 2 tb Orange juice

2 tb Lemon juice

3 tb Powdered sugar

1. Set the oven to the lowest rack, and preheat to 350F.

2. Grease and flour a 9 x 5 loaf pan. Mix flour, poppy seeds and salt

together and set aside. 3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and eggs, one at a time. Beat well

until light and fluffy and the batter has increased in size. Fold in the flour mixture, one third at a time. Pour into the pan. 4. Bake 60 minutes or until lightly browned. If the cake browns too quickly

shield with foil the last 10 minutes. 5. Cool pan on rack for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan, and cool and then

brush with the glaze. Let the cake stand 1-2 days for the best flavor. Source: Brigitte Sealing, Cyberealm BBS, Watertown, NY Typed for you by: Linda Fields, Cyberealm BBS, Watertown, NY 1993 315-786-1120
