Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish

Ingredients

  • 2 Delicata squash cut in half lengthwise then scoop out the seeds
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Add ¼ inch of water to a large 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Cut the squash in half lengthwise, then scoop out & discard the seeds with a spoon.
  • Rub the butter equally into each squash half. Season with a touch of sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, then sprinkle each half equally with the brown sugar.
  • Place the squash in the prepared baking dish, then cover with foil.
  • Place the pan into the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until tender.
  • Remove the foil, then turn the oven to broil and cook for a few minutes or until the sugar starts to caramelize. Watch it carefully so it doesn't burn.
  • Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy.
