When I was a child, I loved eating at my grandma's house, especially when she baked this comforting apple dish. As a busy mother of seven, I'm often short on time, so I use the microwave to fix it quickly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right squash: For the best results, use a firm winter squash, such as butternut, acorn or kabocha. These squashes have a dense, sweet flesh that holds its shape well when baked.
  • Cut the squash into even-sized pieces: This will help ensure that the squash cooks evenly. If the pieces are too large, they may not cook through, and if they are too small, they may overcook and become mushy.
  • Toss the squash with olive oil and spices: This will help the squash to brown and caramelize in the oven. You can use any spices that you like, but some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Roast the squash until it is tender: The squash should be tender enough to easily pierce with a fork. The roasting time will vary depending on the type of squash and the size of the pieces, but it will typically take about 30-45 minutes.
  • Add the apples and cook until they are tender: Once the squash is roasted, add the apples to the pan and cook until they are tender. This will typically take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve the scalloped squash and apples: Serve the scalloped squash and apples immediately, while they are still warm. You can garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or thyme.

Conclusion:

Scalloped squash and apples is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for fall. The squash and apples are roasted until they are tender and caramelized, and the dish is then finished with a creamy cheese sauce. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or dinner party.
