Ingredients

1 medium butternut squash ((about 2 pounds/950g))
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground pepper

Steps

1
Preheat oven to 400°F.
2
Trim the top and bottom from the butternut squash, then peel with a vegetable peeler to remove the skin. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and soft flesh using a spoon. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
3
Transfer cubes to a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Toss well so the pieces are evenly coated.
4
Spread out onto a large baking sheet so the pieces are not touching each other.
5
Bake for 15 minutes then stir and continue baking until tender and caramelized, 10 to 15 minutes more. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
