How to Make Orange And Poppy Seed Quick Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 6-cup loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup orange juice, and the zest of 1 orange.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a handheld electric mixer.
  5. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, on low speed.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients alternately to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Gently fold in 2 tablespoons poppy seeds.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  9. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The bread should also begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.
  10. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
