Grandma's Poppy Seed Bread

I grew up with this almond poppy seed bread recipe and I love it. Everything that my Grandma Harper makes is fantastic!
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1-1/2 c. oil
2-1/4 c. sugar
1-1/2 c. milk
3 c. flour
1-1/2 tsp. salt
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1-1/2 tsp. almond extract
1-1/2 tsp. butter extract
2 T. poppy seeds

Beat together eggs, oil and sugar.. Combine flour, salt and baking powder in another bowl. Add alternately milk and flour mixture to egg, sugar, and oil mixture. Add flavorings and seeds. Pour batter into 2 greased bread pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

Glaze Ingredients:
3/4 c. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. butter extract
1/4 c. orange juice

Mix ingredients well. When you remove the bread from the over pour the glaze over the top while still in the pans and while still hot.

Let cool. Remove from pans, slice, and serve.
