Honey Roasted Butternut Squash
Magda Born
Butternut squash has richly sweet, nutty flesh favored for all kinds of fall and winter cookery. Simply cut in half and bake in the oven until soft. Test by piercing with a long fork. They are excellent drizzled with maple syrup before or after cooking.
- 1 Large butternut squash (peeled, deseeded and cut into medium-size cubes)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Olive oil
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Honey or maple syrup
- As a spice alternative one can add cinnamon and nutmeg
Drizzle the honey (or Maple syrup) over and place in the oven.
Roast for 45 minutes to an hour, turning the cubes intermittently, until soft, sticky and just starting to caramelize
It could be enjoyed as a side dish or further added to a soup or a curry. Enjoy!
