well for heaven's sake I have not heard of cushsaw squash, I wonder if we have it here. Your pumpkin hummus without the smoked paprika (couldn't find any) and chickpeas was a huge success, so thanks for sharing.
That squash was so big I imagine it would make lots of bread. Poor Cort. Looks delicious. Hug B
I like to trade pumpkin with squash or sweet potatoe
That is what we have used for years though everyone calls it cushsaw pumpkin even some of the seed places. It must be different from pumpkin as it doesn't bother Cort. Pumpkins were always coarser to me so we used these for cooking.
Pumpkin butter made from them is good but not safe to can so they tell us now. It is made similar to apple butter and is really good on fresh baked bread.
added to my future recipe tries.... thanks hun xxx
Oh, that looks so good!
I'll keep the recipe because pumpkin bread is one of our faves. :)

I have never heard of that type of squash. The bread looks delicious :)
This looks so good! I love squash, pumpkin, zucchini, and banana breads. They are yummy!
That looks delish! Aren't squash just an amazing food: steamed, baked, for pies, bread, puree for ravioli, squash gnocchi... and by the way, thank you for the reminder of apple butter in my slow cooker. The last of the apples going that way.
Now that I can get your posts through email, I always read them... Loved your 'car kit' ---and we all (even those of us who don't have kids) should have one. Thanks.
That bread looks awesome. Bet it is really moist.
I never had trouble with bees in my hummer feeders either until this year --specifically just lately. Maybe their sources of flowers are drying up around here...???? Anyhow--someone told me to put Almond Extract around the feeder holes.. It won't hurt the hummers --but the bees don't like it... Hope it works...
Hugs,

Thanks for the recipe. I have been hoping to get lots of pumpkin and squashes from my garden this season.
We have pumpkin bread sometimes. I like it with lots of real butter. Never had squash bread though.
