- 1 tsp baking powder

- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 tsp almond extract
- 3 Tbsp amaretto

- Mix the buttermilk with the almond extract and Amaretto in a measuring cup.
- Whisk the dry ingredients together in a small bowl with the poppy seeds.
- Add the dry ingredients alternately with the wet to the butter, beating just to combine.
- Spoon the batter into a greased tube pan and smooth out the top.
- Bake for about 45 - 55 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Tube pans vary in capacity and shape, so baking times will vary as well.
- Cool completely before glazing.
- For the glaze mix the confectioner's sugar with enough milk or cream to thin to a glaze consistency, and add in the extract. You can also use Amaretto to thin the sugar if you prefer. Sprinkle a few poppy seeds or sliced almonds on top if you want to.
Notes
- You can make your own almond paste, it's easy!
