Wow. I loved these. I used a muffin pan instead and they came out amazing. They ended up tasting like pumpkin bread.

I made this last night without the glaze. We loved it. My cantaloupe was the sweetest I've ever had, so I probably could have cut the sugar, but this is definite winner.

We loved this! Who would have thought you could make bread out of cantaloupe? Well, I guess there IS zucchini bread! I did change a few things. We did not like the praline glaze, in fact we scraped it off, so did the kids. The second time I made it I added more nutmeg, about 3/4 of a teaspoon more and a little more ginger. The original recipe calls for two bread pans, but I found the loaves to be a bit short. So the second time I doubled the recipe put it in three pans. Excellent! Good thing I had a bumper crop of cantaloupe, I've been freezing it all week so we can have this yummy bread all winter!

This bread was surprisingly good. I had a cantaloupe left over before heading out on holiday, so decided to puree it and give this recipe a go when I returned. I followed the advice of several members and did not make the glaze but added the pecans to the recipe. I also left out the oil and replaced it with additional cantaloupe puree. And, for the sugar, I did half sugar, half Splenda. The bread is yummy! Thanks for the recipe!

I would have given this five stars but the glaze was just too sweet for me.

Awesome bread! Who knew that cantaloupe bread would be good? And who knew that there was such a thing as cantaloupe bread!!! I did what one of the others suggested and used 1/4 c. oil and 3/4 c. applesauce. Didn't notice a difference at all. In fact, next time I think I'll use all applesauce. I also used egg beaters instead of eggs and that turned out fine as well. Thanks for the recipe. It was great!

Hmmm...not sure about the flavor...yet. It's not that I don't like it but I'm not sure if I do either. Putting some butter on a slice, it was good. I think it needs more spice to it or be sweeter..not sure. I'll tweek the recipe the next time and spice it up a bit to my likings. It IS a very moist bread. I will definitely try again because it seems that,like bananas, I always have some cantaloupe that I need to use up every now and then and this is such a good idea. Thanks for posting the recipe.

WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS TO INSTURCTIONS THIS IS WAY FAR BETTER THAN ANY BREAD I HAVE MADE. I CAME FACE TO FACE WITH 200+ CANTALOUPE AND HAD TO DO SOMETHING. TO CHANGE THE RECIPE-1. I SKIPPED THE GLAZE AND PUT THE NUTS IN THE BREAD. 2. I PUT WAX PAPER IN THE BOTTOM SO IT WOULD COME OUT MORE EASILY. OTHER THAN THAT, IT'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!

Bread liked by adults and children. Did not do praline glaze and reduced sugar by 25%. I have made the recipe twice and will make again. Perfect way to use up those not quite ripe cantaloupes.

this bread was soooo good. My boyfriend, toddler, and I went through a whole loaf just for breakfast. It is unbelievably moist, kinda like cake. I put melted Smartbalance and brown sugar on top, but didn't have any nuts so i left those out. I strongly dislike canteloupe, but I LOVED this. My neighbor and coworker tried it also, and it was a hit.

This is a good tasting bread. Don't expect to taste cantaloupe in every bite - it taste like every other sweet bread. However, the cantaloupe makes it incredibly moist and the spices give this bread an extra kick and a great taste. I didn't give it 5 stars because I didn't like the glaze. The bread taste great without it.

This is really good! My husband brought home a ton of cantaloupe, and I can only eat so much of it! I did not make the glaze for this, but followed the rest as written. It is a great way to use up cantaloupe if you need to, but I wouldn't go out and buy it just for this recipe. Also, I think the fruit needs to be very ripe for this bread.

Very happily surprised that this turned out so yummy! My son requests it everyday for his snack at school... so I made extra and watched it disappear all week! I did add a little more ginger and cinnamon and also a bit of nutmeg, the second time making it to spice it up a little! YUM!

I stumbled upon this recipe while looking for something to use up some cantaloupe. I have to say I was skeptical at first. I had never heard of making bread w/ cantaloupe before, but I'm so glad I tried. It is surprisingly good. I didn't make the glaze, and I don't think it really needs it. I will definitely make this again!

This bread was delicious and it was a HUGE HIT at the "Big Football Game With A Copyrighted Name" party I went to. I'm not a fan of cantaloupe, but I love this. I modified the recipe a bit to make
