  • 1 medium (about 2lbs) butternut or buttercup squash, peeled and cubed
  • 2 large or 3 medium apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/2 in. thick
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar (we used Sucanat)
  • 4 T. organic butter, melted
  • 1 T. flour or arrowroot powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange squash in a large, ungreased baking dish. Scatter apple slices over the top. Combine remaining ingredients and drizzle evenly over squash-apple mixture. Cover dish and bake 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir the dish to mix everything together and meld the flavors. Continue baking until squash is tender, another 20 - 30 minutes.
