Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 medium butternut squash ~4 pounds, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon sage minced, fresh
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 4 tablespoons butter cubed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425f and set the rack to the middle level.
  2. Peel and cut butternut squash in half.  Remove all the seeds and pulp and cut the squash into 2-inch chunks.
  3. Toss the squash pieces with the extra virgin olive oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, pepper, and sage.
  4. Spread the squash out onto a baking sheet. Use two sheets if overcrowded. Place the sheet in the oven and bake for 35 minutes, flipping the squash pieces at the halfway point.  
  5. Remove after 35 minutes and distribute the butter and pumpkin seeds onto the squash. Return to the oven and bake for 5-10 minutes or until fork tender. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use 4 pounds of squash.  Most small to medium butternut squash weigh around 2 pounds.
  • Leftovers can be saved for up to 3 days in the fridge and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
