How to Make Almond Poppy Seed Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans, or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, butter, eggs, milk, almond extract, poppy seeds, and almonds.
  3. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, until well combined.
  4. If making loaves, spoon batter evenly into prepared loaf pans. If making muffins, fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  5. Bake loaves for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Bake muffins for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Muffins can cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring.
