Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.
- Puree enough cantaloupe in blender to make 2 cups puree
- In a large bowl, beat together eggs, oil, sugar, vanilla and cantaloupe puree. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and ginger. Stir flour mixture into cantaloupe mixture; stir to combine. Do not overwork the batter, stir just until no traces of flour remain. Pour batter into prepared pans.
- Bake in preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of a loaf comes out clean.
- While the bread is baking, make the glaze. Add the vanilla to the sifted powdered sugar. Stir in milk, one tablespoon at a time, until a thick glaze is reached. When you lift the whisk, it should fall in an even stream and form a ribbon before disappearing.
- Remove bread loaves from the oven and place on cooling racks. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Place wax paper under cooling rack to catch the drips. Pour the glaze over both warm loaves, covering the tops of both. The glaze will drip down the sides and drip onto the wax paper. Let cool at least one hour before serving.

This excellent bread is very moist and has the texture of pumpkin or zucchini bread. Can puree and freeze extra cantaloupe to make bread in the off season.

CANTALOUPE BREAD
I like this toasted with butter or cream cheese. Yum! If you can't find melons in season, you can puree melon balls from your grocers freezer section. This freezes well. Prep and cook time is approximate.

Tips:
- For a sweeter bread, use ripe cantaloupe. The riper the cantaloupe, the sweeter the bread will be.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the cantaloupe by hand. However, this will take longer and may not produce as fine a texture.
- Be sure to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will make the bread dry and crumbly.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, which will make the bread tough.
- Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
- Let the bread cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
- For a richer glaze, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- If you don't have brown sugar, you can use granulated sugar instead. However, the glaze will be less flavorful.
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Cantaloupe bread with praline glaze is a delicious and unique bread that is perfect for any occasion. The bread is moist and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet and crunchy. This bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
