How to Make Honey Roasted Whole Butternut Squash
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Cut the butternut squash in half and remove seeds.
- Score the squash and put on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Sprinkle each half of squash with a couple of pinches of Kosher salt and pepper.
- Mix the melted butter with the honey, cinnamon, and allspice to make a sauce.
- Brush halves with honey butter sauce. (Wipe up any drips from the parchment paper.)
- Place in the oven for 60 minutes. After 30 minutes, brush again with the sauce. Then return to the oven for 30 minutes more.
- After 60 minutes, check with a fork to see if the squash is tender. If it’s not done, cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
- Brush again with the sauce after it comes out. Reserve the rest of the sauce.
- Serve! Heat the leftover honey butter spiced sauce in the microwave for 15 seconds. Use the leftover sauce to drizzle over the squash when serving.
