mmmm, baking
I was at the grocery store yesterday, picking up some things for grilling. I grabbed this recipe card from the checkout line, and since I actually had all the ingredients at home, I made yesterday afternoon.
Whole Foods' Orange and Poppy Seed Quick Bread
1 1/2 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 c milk
1/3 c fresh squeezed orange juice
zest of one orange, finely grated
6 tbsp butter, softened
2/3 c sugar
2 eggs
3 tsp poppy seeds
Preheat over to 350, butter a loaf pan. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. In another small bowl, combine milk, juice and zest. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time. Add the flour mixture in three additions, and the milk/juice mixture in two additions, alternating. Fold in poppy seeds and pour batter into pan. Bake for 45mins or until done (knife tester method; mine only took 35 mins).
Really good, really moist, quite lovely.
