Browned Butter and Sage Roasted Butternut Squash

[heart_this] · Oct 6, 2022 · 1 Comment

Browned Butter and Sage Roasted Butternut Squash

Tender roasted sweet butternut squash in garlic browned butter with plenty of fried sage!

Sides, or side dishes, are one of my favourite parts of every meal, especially the Thanksgiving meal, and butternut squash is perfect for side! Butternut squash is in season and it’s so easy to roast it with a tasty seasoning and serve it as a side. For this recipe, the butternut squash is peeled, seeded, diced and roasted before tossing it in garlic butter and sage. The salty butter goes so well with the sweet butternut and the garlic and sage are cooked in the butter infusing it with their magical aromas and flavours! I like to brown the butter a little, by simmering it until it turns a little brown, to bring out it’s nutty flavours. This browned butter and sage roasted butternut squash is such an easy to make side for any meal and everyone is sure to ask for seconds!
