Crock Pot Butternut Squash With Brown Sugar and Cinnamon image

I found this recipe in a cook book that I bought from the local high school marching band booster club. This is a great way to cook butternut squash, and it's very easy to make. Use a large, wide round or oval crock pot for best results.

Steps:
