7 Reviews of Butternut Squash Bread

My husband really liked this bread. I halved the recipe because that's how much squash I had, but it took way more flour than what half would have been. I mixed it in my bread machine, so maybe that's why. It came out great, though, and I agree that it tastes like challah.

    I didn't know what to expect when I decided to make this. #1 I didn't know for certain what a butternut squash even looked like let alone tasted like or how to prepare it, and #2 I didn't picture it tasting like bread. It does taste just like bread though. I halved the recipe: I used 3/4 cup of squash, and 3 3/4 cups flour, 2 egg whites; for the butter and sugar I eyed it. Also I used half wheat flour and half white flour. I will make this again, and I will put more squash in it because I wouldn't mind being able to taste it.

    My friend Julianne actually made a loaf of this and brought it to us. You can not tell it has squash in it at all. This is a moist, delicious, flavorful loaf of bread!

    I liked that you can't really taste the squash in this bread---got my little one to eat some veggies without him knowing!!!! Made 3 nice, light loaves. I also used half wheat flour.

    Absolutely divine! Because of the eggs and butter, it's similar in taste/feel to a brioche or challah. Will make again!

    I must say this a very forgiving recipe. Made it yesterday in my mixer. To make a very long story short. Did everything & had put the dough into bowl for 1st rise,when I discovered I had flour left over & had not put in the milk. So I took DOUGH out of the bowl put in the milk & remaning flour mix again, put back into bowl for the rise, then into pans, rise again then baked. YAHOO!!!BREAD WAS PERFECT. So for those who are not bakers this is "IT". bread was very tender & "WONDERFUL. Even f you make a mistake don't fret. I'm 74, & a wonderful bake....PLEASE TRY IT..... Pat in Tucson
