Ingredients

1-3/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/3 cup canola oil
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk
1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon butter flavoring
1-1/2 cups cake flour
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
GLAZE:
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon orange juice
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

In a large bowl, beat the sugar, eggs, applesauce and oil until well blended. Beat in the milk, extracts and butter flavoring. Combine the flours, baking powder and salt; gradually beat into sugar mixture until blended. Stir in poppy seeds.
