Butternut Squash with Apple and Cranberry

Side Dish

Recipe courtesy of Louisiana Kitchen & Culture

Serves 8

Ingredients: 
  • 1 large butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 large tart cooking apples cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (half a stick) butter
  • 1 Tablespoon flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg or mace

Note: Cutting up the butternut squash is the most difficult part of this recipe. Then all you need do is put everything in a casserole and bake it in the oven for an hour. Make it a day ahead of time and just heat it up in the oven (while the turkey's resting) before serving.
