1-2 Butternut squashes (approximately 3lbs once peeled with seeds removed)
2 tbsp olive oil
¼ tsp cinnamon
⅛ tsp nutmeg
Salt (to taste)
1-1 ½ tbsp honey (more or less depending on desired sweetness)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Peel butternut squash, remove seeds and cut into approximately 1 inch cubes.
In a large bowl combine butternut squash & olive oil, toss to coat. As you continue to toss the cubes sprinkle on cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
Transfer squash from bowl to a 9x13 inch casserole dish and spread out into an even layer.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until squash is soft throughout and beginning to caramelize. Stir about half way through bake time.
Remove from oven and lightly drizzle with honey.
Serve & enjoy!
Notes
* A touch of brown sugar and almonds would also be great tossed in this dish!
* Since this dish yields a soft slightly mashed product its can easily be made ahead of time and kept warm in a crockpot or reheated. This makes it a great dish for Thanksgiving or other family gatherings.
