Baked Butternut Cranberry Side Dish
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. chopped/cubed, peeled butternut squash
- 1 large apple, peeled and cored
- 1/2 lb. bag fresh cranberries
- 1 tbsp. olive oil (or coconut oil in liquid state)
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp. ground cloves
Directions:
- Place all ingredients in a 1 gallon-sized ziplock bag or a large container with a tight-fitting lid.
- Shake well to coat everything in spices and maple syrup.
- Pour out into baking dish (Mine was 9×13) and bake at 350 F. for about 1 hour to 1 hour and 20 minutes.
- Note that if you have a smaller, deeper baking dish that this will take longer in the oven. The bigger and more shallow the dish is, the quicker this will cook. (a cookie sheet is not recommended due to the cranberries)
- Add salt to taste after cooking if needed.
(Makes approximately 4 servings)
