Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized butternut squash
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the butternut squash and cut it in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and fibers, then cut the squash into 1-inch cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the butternut squash cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, ground cumin, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss until the squash is evenly coated with the spices and oil.
Spread the seasoned squash cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the squash is tender and lightly browned, stirring halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
Once roasted, remove the squash from the oven and sprinkle with finely chopped fresh rosemary.
Serve hot as a side dish with your favorite keto-friendly entree.
