This easy vegetarian butternut squash casserole with apples would make an excellent vegetarian Thanksgiving side dish. Peeling and seeding butternut squash does take a bit of effort, but you'll want to use fresh rather than frozen butternut squash in this recipe. For a vegan butternut squash casserole, you could use a dairy-free margarine instead of butter.
Ingredients:
- 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and deseeded
- 2 apples
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp vegan margarine or butter
- 1 tbsp flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
Preparation:
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Using a food processor, slice the butternut squash and apples into thin pieces. Or, if you don't have a food processor, you can chop into small dices. Place the squash and apples into a baking dish or casserole dish.
Mash together the remaining ingredients with a fork until crumbly, and sprinkle over the apples and squash.
Bake for 45 to 55 minutes.
