Equipment

  • baking tray
  • Bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 butternut squash
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • spices
  • parmesan

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven at 400 F (200 C). Clean the butternut squash with some kitchen paper and set it on a cutting board. Take a sharp knife and cut the squash half-length size. Cut the ends and scoop out the seeds with a spoon or a scoop.
  • Place them on a baking tray laid with parchment paper. Brush both halves with olive oil and some seasoning. Roast the halves, cut side up and bake for about 40-45 minutes.
  • Take the butternut squash off the oven and let it cool some minutes out. Take a bowl and scoop out the flesh and mash it with a fork or a hand blender. Add the butter and parmesan into the mixture and some seasoning. Mix or beat until creamy and smoothie.
  • Spoon the mashed butternut squash on a plate and garnish rosemary and some pepper flakes.
