Ingredients:

• 3 eggs
• 2 1/4 cups sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
• 1 1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Grease and flour two loaf pans or a bundt pan.

2. Beat Eggs and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.

3. Add Remaining Bread Ingredients: To the egg and sugar mixture, add the salt, vanilla extract, milk, flour, baking powder, and poppy seeds. Beat the mixture for about 2 minutes until well combined and smooth.

4. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans or bundt pan. Place them in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

5. Prepare Glaze: While the bread is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.

6. Finish: Once the bread is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. While it’s still warm, use a toothpick or skewer to poke holes all over the surface of the bread. Then, pour the prepared glaze over the warm bread, allowing it to soak in.

7. Serve: Slice the bread and serve it warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the irresistible aroma and delicious taste of this homemade Poppy Seed Bread!
