Caramelized Butternut Squash image

This is a delicious butternut squash recipe from Ina Garten / The Barefoot Contessa. We really enjoy this during the holidays. It is best when the squash is cut in medium to large chunks so that the outside gets a maple-flavored crust, and the inside stays soft and delicious.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 medium butternut squash (4 to 5 pounds total)
6 -8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2-1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Cut off the ends of each butternut squash and discard.
  • Peel the squash and cut in half lengthwise.
  • Using a spoon, remove the seeds.
  • Cut the squash into 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" cubes (large and uniform is best), and place them on a baking sheet.
  • Add the melted butter, brown sugar, salt and pepper.
  • With clean hands, toss all of the ingredients together and spread out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  • Roast for 45 minutes to 55 minutes, until the squash is tender and the glaze begins to caramelize.
  • Turn the squash while roasting a few times with a spatula to be sure it browns evenly.
  • Adjust seasonings if needed.
  • Serve hot.
  • Enjoy!
