Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 ºC (350 ºF). Generously spray a 22 x 12 cm (9 x 5-inch) loaf pan with vegetable oil, making sure to cover the bottom and sides very well.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, poppy seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, milk, oil, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla and whisk until well blended. Add the dry ingredients to the liquid and stir just until combined. Don't overmix.
  4. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool in the pan on a rack for 10 to 15 minutes, then unmold onto the rack to cool completely.
  5. To make the lemon drizzle, start by sifting the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Add the lemon zest and stir to distribute it. Stir in 1 tablespoon water and as much of the lemon juice as is necessary to make a pourable icing.
  6. Pour the drizzle over the warm or room-temperature bread.
  7. Tightly wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
