Sweet Butternut Squash With Apples

• 5 lbs butternut squash
• 4 apples
• 1 1/2 cups pineapple tidbits (canned)
• 2 tablespoons apple cider
• 2 tablespoons orange marmalade
• 1/2 cup butter, melted (may use margarine)
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 cup dried cranberries (optional)

1. Cut squash in half and remove seeds, soft pulp, and fibers. Then peel the squash and place it cut side down on a cutting board. Cut in half length-wise and then cut into into 1/2-inch slices.
2. Peel and core the apples; cut in 1/2-inch slices.
3. Combine the cider, marmalade, melted butter, sugar, flour, salt and spice.
4. Layer half of the butternut squash in the bottom of the crockpot; top with one half of the apple slices, one half of the pineapple and half of the sugar and spice mixture. Repeat layers.
5. Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour, then switch to LOW and cook 4 hours longer, or until butternut squash is tender. Add in the cranberries, give it a stir, and turn off the crockpot to let it cool for about 45 minutes.
6. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and some chopped walnuts if you like.
