Instructions
 

How To Make The Loaf

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F and line a 9X5 loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Beat the eggs and sugar for a good two minutes intil lighter in color.
    4 Eggs, 1½ cups Sugar
  • Add the oil and mix well.
    ⅔ cup Oil
  • Add the sour cream, lemon zest and vanilla and mix.
    ⅔ cup Sour cream, 1½ tablespoon Lemon zest, 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • Next, add the lemon juice and poppy seeds and mix well.
    3 tablespoon Lemon Juice, 1 tablespoon Poppy seeds
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt and add to the above mixture. Gently mix.
    2 cups All-purpose flour, 3 teaspoon Baking powder, ½ teaspoon Salt
  • Pour the batter into the lined pan. Dip the tip of a spatula into a bowl of oil and run it in the batter lengthwise. This will make the heat get into the loaf and bake better. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Let it cool down before glazing.

How To make The Glaze

  • Mix all the ingredients until the mixture is smooth. If it is too runny add one tablespoon powdered sugar, and if it is too stiff, add a small amount of milk.
    1 cup Powdered sugar, 3 tablespoon Milk, 2 tablespoon Lemon juice, ¼ teaspoon Vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon Corn syrup
  • Pour it over the cool loaf and let it set.
