Glazed Butternut Squash






When I tell you I could not stop eating this when it came out of the oven, it's an understatement.  Nothing says FALL like some butternut squash!

  • 1 butternut squash (serves 3-4 as a side dish)
  • 3 TB melted butter
  • 1/8 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
Oven 400.

Slice off both end of the squash. With a potato peeler, peel the outer skin of the squash. Slice in half longways, and scoop out the seeds. Cut into 1-inch cubes and place in a 9x13 baking pan.

Add the rest of the ingredients and toss to coat. Roast for 40-50 mins, tossing every so often.

Ask me if I have leftovers.
