Best 8 Savory Summer Squash Bread Recipes

SUMMER SQUASH BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the eggs until fluffy. Beat in the sugar, oil, and vanilla. Gradually mix in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fold in the squash. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

SAVORY HERB AND CHEDDAR SQUASH BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a regular size loaf pan and set aside.
• In a large bowl stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and garlic powder. Add in the shredded squash, cheddar cheese, green onions and dill, stirring to fully combine.
• In a separate, smaller bowl, mix together the eggs, buttermilk and butter.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mix in the large bowl and stir together until just combined.
• Spoon batter into loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

SAVORY ZUCCHINI BEER BREAD

Steps:

• Toss the zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a colander and let stand for 15 minutes. Gather it up in your hands and squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
• Preheat the oven 375°F. Generously grease an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, the sugar, and black pepper. Add the zucchini, scallions, coarsely shredded cheese, and 1/4 cup of the olive oil, folding to combine, then pour in the beer. Let stand for a few minutes as the dry ingredients absorb the beer, then fold gently until everything is moistened. It'll be a dense and tacky batter. Scrape into the prepared pan.
• Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the finely shredded cheese. Transfer to the oven and bake until set in the center and a tester comes out clean, 75 to 80 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then unmold. This bread can be served warm (though it'll be a bit gooey inside) and should be eaten within a day or two, stored loosely covered at room temperature.

SAVORY SUMMER SQUASH BREAD

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Generously coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with olive oil; set aside. 2 Place flour, cornmeal, baking powder, oregano, salt, baking soda, and pepper in a large bowl and whisk until combined. 3 Place eggs, buttermilk, and 1/4 cup olive oil in a separate large bowl and whisk until smooth. Using a rubber spatula, fold in squash and feta until evenly combined. Pour squash mixture into flour mixture and stir until flour is just incorporated, being careful not to overmix (a few streaks of flour are OK). 4 Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan, pushing it into the corners and smoothing the top. Bake until the bread is golden brown all over and a toothpick inserted into it comes out clean (test several spots, because you may hit a pocket of cheese), about 60 to 65 minutes. Place the pan on a wire rack to cool for 15 minutes, then turn the bread out onto the rack and cool for at least 15 minutes more before serving.

• Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Add garlic, and sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat; cool slightly.
• Combine remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, milk, 1/2 cup cheese, pepper, nutmeg, eggs and egg whites in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Stir in squash and onion mixture.

SUMMER SQUASH BREAD PUDDING WITH FETA

Steps:

• Slice the bread about 3/4 inch thick. If the bread is not stale, toast it lightly. Cut 1 of the garlic cloves in half and rub each slice of bread with the cut side of the garlic. Then cut the bread into 1-inch dice, place in a bowl and toss with 1 cup of the milk. Refrigerate for 1 hour, tossing every once in a while. Mince the remaining garlic and set aside.
• While the bread is soaking, place the grated squash in a colander and salt generously. Toss and let sit in the colander in the sink for 15 minutes, then squeeze out water.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish or a 10-inch ceramic tart pan. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add a generous pinch of salt, the garlic and grated squash. Stir together until the garlic is fragrant and the squash limp, about 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped mint or dill and the parsley, and remove from the heat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Remove the bowl with the soaked bread from the refrigerator. Using your hands, a whisk or an immersion blender, mash or beat the soaked bread so that the mixture turns to mush. Add the squash mixture and the feta to the bowl and stir together. Scrape into the oiled baking dish. Top with the grated Parmesan.
• Break the eggs into the bowl and beat with the remaining milk, salt to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon) and freshly ground pepper. Pour over the bread mixture and place the dish in the oven. Bake 50 to 60 minutes, until the mixture is puffed, golden brown on the top and set. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes or longer before serving.
