Steps:

  • Halve 1 large unpeeled butternut squash (about 3 pounds) and cut into thick wedges, discarding the seeds. Toss with olive oil and roast at 400 degrees F until soft, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove the skin. Puree the squash with 3 tablespoons butter; season with salt. Warm a few tablespoons of maple syrup with a pinch of cayenne pepper; drizzle over the mash.
  • Use a food processor or immersion blender to puree these veggies-they're too fibrous for a potato masher.

EASY SUMMER SQUASH MASH

My ex-mother-in-law gave me this recipe years ago and every time I make it I receive praise from my family and friends. I don't believe there has ever been one person who does not love Summer Squash made this way. Also, I have found that people who do not ordinarily like squash, like this recipe. I hope you will try this unique way of cooking Summer Squash.
