Would make this again.
I love this recipe and have used it many times. Here are the modifications I make:

1) I add less sugar -- about 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 cups and it is always find.

2) I only add 3/4 cups oil and a little more squash.

3) I add toasted pecans to the batter (350 oven for 6-8 minutes, or until fragrant, then cool and chop).

4) I cook the squash by roasting it in a 400 degree oven for about 45 minutes, or until quite soft -- the roasting imparts a lovely flavor.

Give it a try!

WE loved it!!! It was soooooo good. My mom gave us some squash (acorn I guess) from her garden and I wanted to use them up. I am not much of a baker. Even I did't distroy it. It was sooo easy. MMMMMMMMMMM I didn't know squash could taste so good.

Wow, nice bread. Do agree with other review about adding nuts to batter. Think raisins would be a nice addition as well.
