1 cup plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter at room temperature, divided
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 tablespoons poppy seeds
3/4 cup sugar
3 eggs

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease loaf pan with 1 tablespoon butter. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and poppy seeds.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed or in a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat together remaining cup of butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time. Beat in vanilla and 1/3 cup key lime juice until combined. Add flour mixture to bowl and beat until just incorporated. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan, smooth top, and bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
