Come fall, I absolutely cannot wait to pair apples and butternut squash together in baked dishes and love dreaming up new combinations that showcase this flavorful duo. In this simple dish, apples and butternuts “come out to play” with the more savory onion which when caramelized with aromatic cinnamon and sweet maple syrup create a wonderful taste of autumn heaven.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Make Ahead and Storage Tips: apples, squash and onions may be cut up into chunks up to 1 day ahead. Toss with lemon juice to prevent apples from browning. Cover and refrigerate. Leftovers may be stored in the refrigerator for 2 days. Serve warm or at room temperature. May be frozen up to 4 months.
