What you’ll need for Roasted Butternut Squash

Oven Roasted Butternut Squash is SO easy with just four ingredients, from there you can add in all sorts of seasonings, flavorings and ingredients.  Here are a few different options, but don’t limit yourself to these alone!

BASIC ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH

  • Butternut Squash: the star of the show!  To me, squash taste like a cross between carrots and sweet potatoes when roasted.  You can use any size squash and adjust the olive oil accordingly.
  • Olive oil: use extra virgin olive oil for more flavor.  You can also use any of your favorite baking oils such as avocado oil or grape seed oil.  You will want 2 tablespoons olive oil for a medium butternut squash and 3 tablespoons for a large butternut squash (3 pounds). You can also swap some of the olive oil with melted butter – YUM!
  • Salt: salt is a MUST otherwise your squash will taste bland.
  • Pepper: use more or less to taste.  You can always add more salt and pepper to taste after you taste your roasted squash.

CAN I USE PRE-CUT BUTTERNUT SQUASH?

Absolutely!  Purchasing pre-cut butternut squash makes this oven Roasted Butternut Squash a breeze with less than 5 minutes of prep work!  Just make sure the cubes are uniform size so the squash roasts evenly.

HOW DO I CHOOSE A GOOD BUTTERNUT SQUASH?

The best oven Roasted Butternut Squash, starts with a healthy, ripe squash.  Here is what to look for:

  • Look for a squash that feels heavier than its size.
  • Find a squash with skin that has a matte finish. If the skin looks shiny, it was picked early and is not ripe.
  • Touch the stem. It should look and feel dry where it was separated from the vine.
  • Check for blemishes like cuts or dark spots. You don’t want any of those on your squash.

Roasted Butternut Squash Recipe variations: How to season butternut squash

Classic Roasted BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Classic Roasted Butternut Squash is the recipe I’ve included in the recipe card and in the photos. It boasts a well rounded flavor profile vs emphasizing one particular ingredient. It’s infused with hints of cinnamon, brown sugar, maple, balsamic, thyme, rosemary, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper. I also like to use a combinatoric of both butter and olive.

  • Melt butter in a medium bowl in the microwave.  Add all remaining ingredient and whisk to combine.  Drizzle 2/3 butter mixture over squash then mix until evenly coated.
  • Spread squash in a single layer so it isn’t touching.
  • Roast for 15 minutes, stir and spread back into an even layer.  Continue to roast an additional 10-15 minutes, or until squash is fork tender.  Broil 1-2 minutes if desired.  Toss with remaining butter mixture. Serve warm.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH SAGE

Sage pairs particularly well with roasted butternut squash. You can toss the squash with 12 sage leaves before roasting or 2 tablespoons finely chopped sage.  You can also choose to toss sage with browned butter before adding to the squash.  To do this:

  • Roast squash according to basic squash ingredients/instructions.
  • In a separate small pan, melt 2 tablespoon butter over medium heat until the foam subsides.
  • Add 20 sage leaves and cook just for 30 seconds, or until the butter is light brown and the sage is crisp.
  • Immediately pour over roasted squash and toss to coat.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH BALSAMIC

Balsamic Roasted Butternut Squash is one of my favorite combinations.  Whisk together 2 tablespoons balsamic and 2 teaspoons either honey or pure maple syrup.  Toss squash with a third of the mixture along with 1 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary, olive oil, salt and pepper.  After roasting, toss squash with remaining mixture.

CINNAMON ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Toss butternut squash cubes with 1 1/2 tablespoons pure maple syrup and 1/2-¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon along with olive oil, salt and pepper.  You can also add a dash of cayenne pepper.  Roast according to directions.  The recipe I’ve included in the recipe card is an amped up version of Cinnamon Roasted Butternut Squash.

BROWN SUGAR ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH

Toss butternut squash cubes with 2 tablespoons brown sugar optional 1/2-¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon, rosemary or sage along with olive oil, salt and pepper.  You may also substitute the olive oil with 3 tablespoons melted butter like I’ve done in the recipe card. 

Asian Roasted Butternut Squash

This is the Roasted Butternut Squash recipe I posted years ago and it is glorious!  AKA Roasted Butternut Squash and caramelized cashews infused with brown sugar and loaded with Asian spices for deliciousness in every bite.

The caramelized roasted squash melts in your mouth and the cashews add a satisfying crunch, all seeping with Chinese 5 Spice, garlic, ginger, Sriracha and brown sugar.

You will need:

  • 1 medium squash, peeled, chopped into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Chinese 5 Spice Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon Sriracha/hot Asian chili sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/3 cup whole cashews

Directions:

  1. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
  2. Add butternut squash and all remaining ingredients except cashews and toss until evenly coated.
  3. Spread out in a single layer so the squash is not touching.
  4. Bake at 400 degrees F for 12 minutes.
  5. After squash has cooked 12 minutes, add the cashews and stir to coat in some of the pan seasonings.
  6. Cook an additional 12-18 minutes or until squash is fork tender.

HOW DO YOU CUT BUTTERNUT SQUASH?

Butternut squash comes in a fun shape and size with a tough outer skin, which can make it intimidating to cut up. While you can roast it in halves,  I prefer cubing my butternut squash because then you get FOUR sides of caramelized goodness and more surface area for seasonings.

Tips and tricks for cutting butternut squash:

  • Wash your squash. You don’t know what conditions the surface of your squash has encountered.  Some might say, “we aren’t eating the outside,” BUT our knife is going to be passing through the outside of the squash into the inside of the squash, so it is important that it is free from bacteria.
  • Microwave to soften skin. Butternut squash skin can be quite difficult to peel so you will need a sharp peeler. If you don’t have a sharp peeler in your kitchen, you can microwave the squash for about 2 minutes to aid in the peeling process.  Make sure you poke the outside of the squash all over with a fork and don’t microwave it any longer or it could explode!
  • Peel squash.  Cut a small slice off the bottom of your squash to give a flat, sturdy end then place your squash on the cutting board on the flat end.  Peel straight down from the top neck of the squash to the base. The squash will first reveal white and then green layers as you peel. Peel away all color layers until only orange flesh remains.

  • Cut Squash. Slice the squash down the middle, from top to bottom to create two even halves. Next, place the flat surface of the squash on the cutting board and cut into 2 pieces right where the neck meets the bulb. You should now have four pieces total.

  • Remove seeds.  Use a large scoop with a serrated edge- like a grapefruit spoon and scoop out the seeds and the fibrous strings.

  • Chop into cubes.  Lay your neck halves flat side down on your cutting board and slice length wise. Lastly, cube all your slices by cutting the other direction and you’re done!

How to make Roasted Butternut Squash

Oven Roasted Butternut Squash can be on your able in less than 30 minutes, and even sooner if you purchase pre-chopped butternut squash or chop it in advance.   Here are a few helpful tips and tricks for the BEST Oven Roasted Butternut Squash recipe:

  • Preheat oven: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.  A hot oven heats the baking sheet so it’s hot enough to caramelize the natural sugars of the butternut squash and develop that tantalizing nutty roasted flavor.
  • Use foil:  You can roast your squash directly on the baking sheet, but I prefer to line it with foil for easy clean up, this way there are literally NO pans to wash!   Make sure your lightly grease the foil or baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray so you don’t lose any of your squash to stubborn sticking.
  • Chop squash:  chop squash into uniform size cubes.  It doesn’t matter the particular size, as long as they are relatively uniform so they bake evenly.  See above section on how to cut butternut squash.
showing how to roast butternut squash by chopping into cubes
  • Toss with olive oil and seasonings. Add butternut squash, olive oil (and/or butter), salt and pepper and other desired seasonings to prepared baking dish and toss to evenly combine.  At this point you can add any additional seasonings as well such as maple or brown sugar.
showing how to roast butternut squash by tossing with olive oil and seasonings
  • Spread in an even layer: Spread squash into an evenly layer so they are not touching.  We don’t want them touching or else they will steam instead of roast.  If you are cooking a lot of squash, you may need to separate the cubes between two baking sheets.
  • Oven roast: Roast butternut squash cubes at 400 degrees F for 25-30 minutes depending on size or until fork tender.

How long to roast butternut squash

Butternut squash should be roasted at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes. You want your butternut squash to be fork tender but not mushy and slightly crisp on the outside due to caramelization.   We are looking for caramelized golden butternut squash cubes but not burned squash.

What temperature to roast butternut squash

As far as temperature, lower oven temperatures create more steam.  Steam can thwart the caramelization process  – sad day – so instead, we roast squash at a relatively high temperature of 400 degrees F.

Oven Roasted Butternut Squash FAQs

IS BUTTERNUT SQUASH HEALTHY?

Yes!  Butternut Squash is not only is low in calories, but it is packed with vitamins, minerals and nutrients such as magnesium, fiber, potassium, vitamins A & C. Butternut squash also contains many great antioxidants that help to lower and maintain sugar and insulin levels.

DOES BUTTERNUT SQUASH GO BAD?

Although butternut squash can keep for months, it will eventually go bad if not used.  You will know your squash is bad if there are soft, mushy spots or if once cut open, the color is extremely dull or if the flesh is spotty, mushy or dry to the point it is pulling away from the skin, then toss it.

Why is my roasted butternut squash soggy?

There could be a few reasons why your roasted butternut squash is turning out soggy:
Overcrowding: If you overcrowd the baking sheet with butternut squash pieces, they will release more moisture and steam, making it difficult for them to roast properly. Leave enough space between the pieces to allow for proper air circulation.
Insufficient heat: Make sure your oven is preheated and calibrated correctly. Roasting at the high heat of 400°F is ideal to caramelize the sugars on the surface and reducing excess moisture.
Improper oiling: If you don’t coat the butternut squash pieces evenly with oil, the squash won’t crisp up where it’s missing oil.
Insufficient roasting time: Butternut squash needs sufficient time in the oven to roast and develop that crispy exterior. Roast until they turn golden brown on the edges, and the texture becomes tender.

Do you remove skin from butternut squash before cooking?

The skin of butternut squash is edible and contains nutrients, but is best peeled for roasted butternut squash to achieve the ideal texture. Roasted skin can be slightly tough and chewy, and can cook at a different rate than the flesh, leading to inconsistencies in the texture. Peeling the squash ensures even roasting and uniform caramelization.

Roasted Butternut Squash storage

Roasted Butternut Squash should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.

CAN I MAKE ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AHEAD OF TIME?

Yes!  The texture of oven roasted butternut squash keeps very well, unlike more temperamental vegetables like Roasted Asparagus.   You can bake your squash ahead of time and serve cold, room temperature or hot.

If you want to enjoy fresh, piping hot butternut squash right out of the oven, you can prepare it ahead of time.  The squash can be chopped a day in advance and either stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator OR tossed with olive oil and seasonings, spread out on the baking sheet, covering tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerated.  When ready to serve, simply roast the butternut squash, adding an additional 5 minutes to roasting time.

CAN I FREEZE ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH?

Yes, butternut squash freezes like a champion!

  1. Let butternut squash cubes cool completely on baking sheet.
  2. Place baking sheet in the freezer (make sure squash isn’t touching).
  3. Freeze until firm, about 1-2 hours (this will prevent the cubes from freezing together in a container).
  4. Transfer squash to a freezer container (leaving room for possible expansion) or a large freezer bag and squeeze out excess air to prevent freezer burn.
  5. When ready to eat, the squash can be roasted straight from frozen without thawing first.

 HOW DO I REHEAT COOKED BUTTERNUT SQUASH?

You can reheat cooked Butternut Squash in the microwave at 30-second intervals but be aware that you will end up with softer Butternut Squash.

For best results AKA crisp tender Butternut Squash, spread the cubes in an even layer on a baking sheet.   Bake Butternut Squash at 400 degrees for 5-10 minutes, until warmed through.

WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH LEFTOVER ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH CUBES?

Roasted Butternut Squash makes fantastic leftovers plain or it is delicious in the aforementioned recipe ideas, or add it to: Parmesan risotto. Greek rice, eggs, omelets, savory crepes, enchiladas, burritos, pizza, pasta, soups or salads.

HOW DO I STORE FRESH BUTTERNUT SQUASH?

Once you select fresh butternut squash, you will want to keep it fresh.  It’s a sad day when you’re giddy to bake butternut squash and your squash is bad.

  • To prolong the life of your squash, store fresh, uncut squash in a cool, dark place, such as a dark pantry, basement or closet, where sunlight won’t quicken its ripening.
  • Make sure to keep it away from moisture to prevent mold and rotting.
  • Proper conditions will keep your store-bought butternut squash fresh for two to three months.
  • If you grow your own butternut squash or purchase it from a farmers market, it can last up to 4 months.
  • Whole raw squash also keeps well in the refrigerator although it spoils more quickly than in a cool, dry place. Refrigeration is ideal for warmer times of the year.  Butternut squash will keep in the refrigerator for one to two weeks.

*If you aren’t familiar with  Chinese 5 Spice, I first introduced my readers to it with my Chinese 5 Spice Chicken Wings with Sticky Soy Balsamic Reduction Glaze (in case you needed a second delicious reason to buy the spice).  Its a powder spice mix of cinnamon, cloves, Szechwan pepper, ground fennel seeds, and star anise which creates an explosion of flavor and the perfect balance of spice and heat.  It is thought to have been created by ancient Chinese who were attempting to produce a perfectly balanced “wonder spice.”

MAKE AHEAD

The squash can be chopped a day in advance and either stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator OR tossed with olive oil and seasonings, spread out on the baking sheet, covering tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerated.  When ready to serve, simply roast the butternut squash, adding an additional 5 minutes to roasting time.
