Vegetarian Butternut Squash Casserole

By Jolinda Hackett, About.com

Vegetarian butternut squash casserole

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 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.
