Butternut Squash Bread favorite squash recipe (repost)

[Guest guest]

Believe me this is very good, kind of a cross between pumpkin bread and my sweet

potato bread. No one believes it's squash and it

makes 2 loaves. One for you and one to give to a friend.

 

 

Butternut Squash Bread

 

2 cups mashed cooked butternut squash (I cut in large chunks and steam)

1 cup canola oil

2 cups sugar

3 eggs beaten

1 tsp. vanilla

3 cups flour

1/4 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. cinnamon

* optional 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and grease two 8 1/2X4 loaf pans.

In large mixing bowl combine, squash, eggs, sugar, vanilla and oil, and

blend.

In a separate bowl mix all the dry ingredients (except walnuts) and add

to the wet ingredients.

Stir until just combined.

Fold in nuts.

Pour into prepared pans and bake until toothpick inserted comes out

clean. 60 minutes. Cool 10 minutes on wire rack. Remove from pans

and continue cooling on wire rack.

Wow, I made these tonight because of your convincing review (and the

fact that I have an excess of butternut squash at the moment), and they

were delicious! The kids loved them (and they are PICKY). I can't even

believe they tried them, knowing they were made from butternut squash.

But they smelled so good they couldn't resist! I made one loaf with

walnuts and one without, both were moist, sweet, and delicious. Thanks!!
