Ingredients
1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed, seeds removed (~7 cups cubed)
1 Tbsp avocado oil (or other neutral oil with high smoke point)
1 ½ Tbsp maple syrup
1 healthy pinch sea salt and black pepper
1-2 tsp curry powder or shawarma spice blend (optional)
Instructions
1. The best way to cut butternut squash is to start with a large, very sharp knife and a sturdy
cutting board. To begin, cut off the top stem and bottom end of your squash and discard.
2. Then cut the squash in half where the small, cylinder shape and round, bulb shape meet. Use a
sharp knife (or a sturdy vegetable peeler) to carefully remove the skin (NOTE: You can leave it
on as the skin is edible, but we prefer removing it for creamier texture). Remove any seeds
with a spoon or ice cream scoop. Cut the squash into small (~1/2 - 3/4-inch) cubes. For a
visual of how to chop squash, watch this short video.
3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and line 1 large baking sheet with parchment paper or
a non-stick sheet (use more baking sheets if making a larger batch — just know it will require
more time to roast).

4. To a large mixing bowl or the prepared baking sheet(s), add cubed squash, avocado oil, maple
syrup, salt, pepper, and curry powder or shawarma spice blend (optional). Toss until evenly
coated with a spoon or spatula, then arrange in a single layer. Make sure there is a little room
between the squash pieces to help them roast and get golden brown.
5. Bake for ~20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Toss at the 15-minute mark for more even
cooking. Enjoy roasted squash in bowls, on salads, blended into soups, or as a side to nearly
any main!
6. Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep in the refrigerator up to 2-3 days. Not freezer
friendly once baked. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat, or in a 350 degree F (176 C)
oven or microwave until hot.
