Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 2 pounds buttercup squash, halved and seeded

  • 2 baking apples, cut into 1/2-inch slices, or more to taste

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • ¼ cup butter, melted

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground mace

  • ½ cup dried cranberries (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x11-inch casserole dish.

  2. Place squash on a flat work surface. Trim off the hard outer rind with a knife. Cut squash into 1/2-inch slices; arrange slices over the bottom of the prepared dish. Arrange apples on top.

  3. Combine brown sugar, butter, flour, salt, and mace together in a bowl. Pour mixture over the apples. Sprinkle cranberries on top.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and apples are tender, 50 minutes to 1 hour.

Cook's Notes:

You may substitute 1/4 cup maple syrup for 1/4 cup of the brown sugar.

Butternut squash may be substituted for the buttercup squash. You can slice the squash into slightly bigger pieces.
