Recipe Introduction
I've made Cantalope Bread before and Loved it but not with a Praline Glaze. Sounds good to me and I see it makes two loaves not just one! " 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. "
List of Ingredients
3 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups cantaloupe - peeled, seeded and pureed
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup butter
1 2/3 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Recipe
1 Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour two
9x5 inch loaf pans.
2 In a large bowl, beat together eggs, vegetable, sugar, vanilla and cantaloupe. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and ginger. Stir flour mixture into cantaloupe mixture; stir to combine. Pour batter into prepared pans. 3 Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted into center of a loaf comes out clean. Meanwhile, combine margarine and brown sugar. Microwave for 3 minutes, stirring at 1 minute intervals; mix in pecans. Pour sauce over warm bread. Let cool for 1 hour before serving.
