Recipe type: Side Dish
Ingredients
  • 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
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Peel butternut squash, remove seeds and cut into approximately 1 inch cubes.
  3. 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.
  4. Transfer squash from bowl to a 9x13 inch casserole dish and spread out into an even layer.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until squash is soft throughout and beginning to caramelize. Stir about half way through bake time.
  6. Remove from oven and lightly drizzle with honey.
  7. 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.
