Print Recipe

A warm and comforting side dish combining sweet butternut squash and tart apples, topped with a cinnamon-sugar glaze and baked until tender and lightly browned.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 butternut squash (2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 3 medium tart apples, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Coat a 13×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  3. Layer the butternut squash and apples evenly in the baking dish.
  4. In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon.
  5. Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over the squash and apples.
  6. Drizzle melted butter over the top.
  7. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the squash and apples are tender.

Notes

For best results, use tart apples like Granny Smith to balance the sweetness of the squash. Covering the dish while baking helps retain moisture and ensures tender squash and apples.
