Ingredients

Crisp:

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking dish

1/4 cup all-purpose flour 

2 tablespoons light brown sugar 

Pinch kosher salt 

1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into cubes and kept cold

1/4 cup rolled oats 

Filling:

1 pound butternut squash, cut into 3/4-inch chunks

2 apples, cut into 1-inch chunks 

1/4 cup dried cranberries 

1/2 cup granulated sugar 

3 teaspoons cornstarch 

2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice 

Pinch kosher salt 

Directions

  1. For the crisp: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray an 8-inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Mix the flour, brown sugar and salt in a bowl. Use a pastry blender, two knives, or a food processor to cut in the butter until the size of peas. Add the oats and combine, taking care to not break up the oats too much. Set aside.
  3. For the filling: In a bowl, combine the squash, apples and cranberries and toss with the granulated sugar, cornstarch, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Top with the crisp mixture. Bake until the top is golden brown and crispy, 50 to 55 minutes.

This was absolutely delicious and wasn’t an overly sweet dessert. Great for fall! I did double the topping as previous reviews mentioned. I also used three apples and not two. I used a bigger vessel to bake in than an 8x8 also. I had a lot of squash, so it worked out nicely. I also added a heaping measurement of the dried cranberries, and added a splash of vanilla. Will make again!!!
