Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

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

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Cut off and discard the ends of each butternut squash. Peel the squash, cut them in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds. Cut the squash into 1 1/4 to 1 1/2-inch cubes and place them on a baking sheet. Add the melted butter, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. With clean hands, toss all the ingredients together and spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 45 to 55 minutes, until the squash is tender and the glaze begins to caramelize. While roasting, turn the squash a few times with a spatula, to be sure it browns evenly. Taste for seasonings and serve hot.

Just made this and it was delicious! I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the squash before roasting and it gave it a nice warm flavor.

This caramelized butternut squash was a hit! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The squash was tender and flavorful, with a nice caramelized crust. I served it with roasted chicken and it was a delicious and healthy meal.
