BAKED BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH APPLES This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Woodson Estate in Bedford, Texas in 1990.
Ingredients:
4 medium butternut squash
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 granny smith apples sliced and cored
1 cup light brown sugar packed
1/2 cup raisins
4 tablespoons butter
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 then lightly grease a rectangular banking dish.
2. Wash squash and cut in half lengthwise then scoop out seeds and string membrane.
3. Place squash halves with cut side down in the baking pan.
4. Add 1/2 cup water to the pan and cover with aluminum foil then bake 45 minutes.
5. While squash is baking prepare the apple filling.
6. In a large frying pan melt butter then add brown sugar and stir until you have a smooth sauce.
7. Add apples and raisins then stir and slowly sauté until apples are soft then remove from heat.
8. Remove squash from oven and increase oven temperature to 425.
9. Remove squash from pan and drain off liquid.
10. Return squash to pan with cut sides up and lightly sprinkle each with salt.
11. Divide apples and fill each squash until full then sprinkle with nutmeg.
12. Return stuffed squash to oven and bake until apples are hot and glazed about 15 minutes.
