Yellow Squash + Yellow Peaches = YELLOW BREAD!

The Yellow Squash were looking REALLY fresh at Safeway so I brought some home. At first I couldn't really find any good recipes for baking with them but then I realized that Yellow Squash was pretty much the same as Zucchini. SO if I can make Zucchini Bread (and Muffins!), I can make Yellow Squash Bread! I really liked the canned peaches in this cuz it made the bread really moist and fruity. It's definitely a yummy variation to the good old Zucchini Bread!

Ingredients: (1 loaf)
2 eggs
1 c sugar
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 c chopped yellow squash (about 1 small)
1 can (10 oz) diced peaches, drained
2 cs all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 c chopped walnuts

Prep:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs. Add sugar, oil and vanilla; beat well. Stir in squash and peaches.
2. Combine dry ingredients; stir into squash mixture. Stir in walnuts.
3. Pour into greased and floured 9 x 5-in loaf pan. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to a wire rack.
