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.

Time 6h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large butternut squash, about 3 to 4 pounds
1 cup apple juice
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Quarter the butternut squash lengthwise, cut stem off, and scoop out seeds. Pour the apple juice into the slow cooker.
  • Combine the butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a cup or small bowl.
  • Put two of the squash quarters, cut side up, in the slow cooker. Drizzle with about half of the butter-brown sugar mixture.
  • Place the remaining two squash quarters on the first ones and drizzle with remaining butter-brown sugar mixture.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours, or until squash is tender.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use brown sugar instead of white sugar.
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can bake the butternut squash in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about an hour.
  • You can also add other spices to the butternut squash, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger.
  • Be sure to pierce the butternut squash with a fork before cooking so that it cooks evenly.
  • If you are using a slow cooker, cook the butternut squash on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-5 hours.
  • The butternut squash is done cooking when it is tender when pierced with a fork.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooked sugared butternut squash is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a healthy and nutritious way to enjoy this winter squash.
