Delicious squash, and we loved the flavors from the spices. This is the way I plan to make our squash for the holidays we liked it so well!

This is a very Thanksgiving-y accompaniment! My butternut squash must've been on the small side, as the mixture ended up too buttery / soggy, but a microwaved sweet potato came quickly to the rescue! Thanks for posting a solid, good-n-traditional tasting recipe.

Delicious! I pressure cooked the squash then added the butter, sugar and spices. This will be my go to recipe from now on.
