1 (1 1/2-pound) butternut squash, peeled and 3/4-inch) diced
Good olive oil
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons dried cranberries
3/4 cup apple cider or apple juice

Time 3h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
olive oil
2 sweet onions (such as Vidalia®), diced
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 quarts vegetable stock
1 (8.4 ounce) package medium-hot curry sauce (such as S&B® Golden Curry)

¼ cup toasted pine nuts, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place squash onto a baking sheet cut-side down.
  • Bake squash in preheated oven until the skin loosens from the flesh, about 40 minutes.
