Story

What an unusual way to serve butternut squash! I've baked it before with maple syrup, but this custard-style dish is incredibly interesting and tasty. It's very smooth and sweet, which appeals to even the youngest children. You might even consider heating a little maple syrup with chopped pecans just to drizzle over the top as a final voila!
