Butternut Squash

Ingredients

Instructions

2 medium butternut squash (4 -5 pounds total)
6 tbls. unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. pepper

Preheat oven to 400.

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 - 55 minutes, until the squash is tender and glaze begins to carmelize. While roasting, turn the squash a few time with a spatula, to be sure it browns evenly. Taste for seasoning and serve hot.
