Ingredients
-
1 butternut squash halved horizontally and seeded
-
4 Tablespoons butter
-
1 Tablespoon honey
-
2 Tablespoon olive oil
-
4 sprigs thyme
-
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F / 200°C.
- In a bowl, mix butter, honey, salt and pepper.
- Afterwards, make 3 vertical incisions to the halved squashes without reaching the bottom, and 6 or 8 horizontal incisions (to result in thick squares).
- Place the squash over a baking sheet.
- However, spread the mix over the squash and make sure you reach down between the incisions.
- Toss the thyme over the squash.
- Pour a swirl of olive oil over the thyme.
- Then, bake for 45 minutes.
- After that, remove from the oven and pierce the flesh of the squash with a fork
- If it enters easily, it’s ready. But if it’s still too hard, you can leave it for an extra 10 to 15 minutes.
- Now, it’s time to remove your Honey Butternut Squash from the oven.
- With a big spoon, separate the flesh from the crust but keep them contained in its rind.
- Basically, your Honey Butternut Squash is ready for consumption!
