For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter.
If you don't have summer squash, zucchini can be used as a substitute.
To prevent the bread from sticking, you can line the baking dish with parchment paper before greasing and flouring.
The bread freezes well. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then foil, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.

    This recipe is amazing! My family loves it, and it's a great way to use up all the squash from my garden.

  • Elena Effertz

    The bread was a little dense, I think I overmixed it. Next time I'll be more careful.
