Instructions

  1. Preheat over to 350 degrees F.
  2. Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
  3. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and spices in a mixing bowl and whisk together.
  4. In another bowl, combine the squash puree, eggs, oil, water (or orange juice), and white and brown sugars. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined; do not over-mix.
  6. Pour the batter into the loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, until a wooden pick inserted in the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
  8. Put the loaf pan on a cooling rack and allow the bread to cool completely before removing it from the pan.
  9. Bread will stay fresh, wrapped tightly, at room temperature for two days, or in the fridge for up to a week—if it lasts that long.
