Pour batter into 2 greased and floured loaf pans. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. While baking, prepare glaze by mixing all ingredients in a small saucepan. Heat until blended; do not boil. Spread glaze on baked bread while still hot; cool in pans on rack.
