Ingredients:  
3 eggs
2 cups grated yellow squash
1 cup oil
2 cups sugar
1 cup chopped walnuts
3 cups flour
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Directions:
Directions:
Wash and slice the tip ends off of the yellow summer squash and then grate. I packed the measuring cup tightly to get more of the good vegetable into the bread.
The recipe did not call for it but I almost always sift the dry ingredients together.
That way there are no lumps of ingredients like baking powder which do not get fully incorporated into the final product.
After blending the eggs with the sugar and rest of the wet ingredients, add the dry ingredients ending with the chopped nuts.
The batter is fairly thick at this point.
Pour into two large loaf pans or an appropriate number of smaller loaf pans.
I used the set of 4 smaller loaf pans that I have plus an extra one for the excess batter because I was planning to give some of those baked sweet breads away as gifts.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out dry.
