Preparation time: 15 min

Cooking Time: 30-40 min

INGREDIENTS
1 Small Buttercup squash
100g Apples, diced
2 tsp Softened butter
2 tsp Brown sugar
1 or 2 tsp Ground nutmeg

PREPARATION

Preheat oven to 205°C.

On a chopping board, with a well sharpened knife, cut the squash in two, height wise.

Remove the seeds and the fibres from each half. Place both squash halves skin-side down on an ungreased baking sheet.

Combine the apples, butter, sugar, nutmeg and lemon juice in a small bowl. Spread the mixture in each squash half.

Serve while the squash is very hot, as a sweet side dish, or for dessert.
