Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large butternut squash
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Carefully peel the butternut squash using a vegetable peeler. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds using a spoon.
Cut the squash into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil over the squash cubes. Add salt, ground black pepper, ground cinnamon, and fresh rosemary to the bowl.
Toss the squash cubes to ensure they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.
Spread the seasoned squash cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the butternut squash in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, turning once halfway through the cooking time, until the squash is tender and the edges are golden brown.
Remove the squash from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
