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

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour two 9x5 inch loaf pans.

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.

Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour 30mins, until a toothpick inserted into center of a loaf comes out clean. Let cool for 1 hour before serving.
