Butternut Squash Roasted with Brown Butter Recipe

Ingredients

2 lbs butternut squash, peeled and seeded (about 1 large one)
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons salted butter
1 ⁄4 teaspoon ground nutmeg or 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh nutmeg, grated

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Cut peeled and seeded squash into 1-inch cubes.
Spray a baking sheet or dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Place squash on baking dish and drizzle with olive oil.
Toss to coat and arrange in a single layer.

Bake for 45 minutes, or until very tender and beginning to brown, stirring occasionally.

Transfer to serving dish or bowl.

Melt butter in small saucepan over medium-low heat, until butter turns a nut-colored brown, about 4 minutes only-- don't burn it!
Pour over squash, toss to coat, and sprinkle with nutmeg.
Serve hot.
