Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large butternut squash (3 1/2 pounds), halved and seeded
Extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 quart whole milk
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for dish
Fine plain breadcrumbs, for dish
4 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (2 ounces)
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Make the squash: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat squash with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking sheet, cut sides down, and cover with parchment-lined foil. Roast until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 50 minutes. Let cool.
  • Scoop flesh from squash using a large spoon; discard skin. Puree flesh in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Make the bechamel: Heat milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until bubbles form around the edge. Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add flour, and cook, whisking constantly, until flour is incorporated. Continue to cook until golden, with a nutty scent, about 3 minutes more. Whisk in milk in a slow, steady stream. Cook, whisking, until mixture is thick, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour or overnight. Whisk bechamel until smooth before using.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Make the pudding: Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, and coat with breadcrumbs. Beat 3 cups pureed squash, the melted butter, eggs, yolks, Parmesan, and nutmeg with mixer on medium speed until smooth. Fold in bechamel. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Cover with parchment-lined foil, and place in a larger baking dish. Fill with enough warm water to come halfway up sides of smaller dish.
