making butternut squash bread

I love butternut squash and the idea of turning it into bread seemed both ridiculous and impossible!  The challenge was on.  My friend gave me this recipe that she had meant to try but never bothered.  I think she might have got it of the internet but she couldnt remember!

The result was very unusual but tasty all the same.  If I’m honest, it was a little bit doughy in the middle and probably could have done with being cooked for just a bit longer.  I would definitely try it again though as it is a healthier alternative to realy bread
