Ingredients

2 butternut squash (about 1 pound each)
4 tablespoons softened butter, divided
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 orange, zested
3 tablespoons orange blossom honey
Pinch ground cinnamon

Directions

Halve the squash lengthwise and remove the seeds and strings. Rub the insides with 2 tablespoons softened butter; season with salt and pepper. Place on a roasting pan, skin side down. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until fork tender. Remove the squash from the oven, scoop out the flesh and place in a food processor. Add the orange zest, honey and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Puree until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and cinnamon. Pulse a few times to incorporate.

Worked great!

I had never touched a butternut squash until I decided to make a risoto recipe. This was easy and made a tasty puree. The... orange and honey do make it sweet and citrusy (might be too much for some folks), which might not be to everyone's taste, but I'm planning to use the leftover for a soup once I defrost it.Read more

Simple and Sublime
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this recipe last weekend as a "test" for Thanksgiving Dinner. We loved it!! I expect all our guests next week will ask... for the recipe. Another plus is that you can make it ahead and the flavors don't fade. Just warm it up in the Microwave. "How easy is that!!"Read more

It was a little too spicy for my taste. I just did not like the ginger in it even though I usually like ginger.
