Gluten Free Butternut Squash Bread

Gluten Free Butternut Squash Bread.  I made you some butternut squash bread!  I know I have said this before, but I just love getting my co-op basket.

You never know what fruits and vegetables you are going to get.  I love squash and have been using it a lot lately, so when I saw it in my basket, I wanted to try something different other than roasting it or making a soup.

So I decided to try baking some bread with it.

This gluten free butternut squash bread came out moist and delicious!  This recipe is great because butternut squash is already naturally sweet so you can use much less sweetener.

I am all about cutting the sugar whenever possible.  This would be yummy to make on a cold day.  We just haven’t had many of those yet here in Dallas.

Baking it also makes the house smell so good.  I hope you enjoy it.
