- This butternut squash recipe is really light and flavorful; very little oil is used.
- The juice of the baked apples will release while baking.
- If the squash on the top of the casserole begins to dry out, just gently stir the casserole to evenly coat the squash during mid-bake.
- The natural juices will help the squash cook.
