Servings: 1 serving
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup cubed butternut squash
- ½ tablespoon olive oil
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
- ⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Instructions
- Heat oven to 425° F (220° C).
- Place the butternut squash cubes on a baking sheet and toss with olive oil and spices.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
Notes
- Customize the Seasoning: Feel free to use your favorite spices or herbs. While this recipe suggests certain spices, simple salt and pepper or herbs like dried thyme or rosemary can create equally delicious variations.
- Use Your Hands to Mix: For the best coating, toss the squash cubes with oil and spices using your hands. It ensures every piece is evenly seasoned.
- Don’t Overcrowd the Baking Sheet: Make sure the squash cubes are spaced out on the baking sheet. Leaving room between them allows for better air circulation, giving you beautifully caramelized and golden edges.
