Ingredients

2 medium honeynut squash halved and seeded
3 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp white miso paste
1 tbsp clover honey
1 tsp chili flakes
1/4 cup toasted pepitas
2 tbsp pomegranate arils
1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
kosher salt to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Season the halved honeynut squash lightly with salt and roast cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 25–30 minutes until tender and caramelized.

While the squash roasts, place butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling constantly until it turns golden brown and smells nutty.

Immediately remove from heat and whisk in the white miso paste until smooth.

Flip the roasted squash halves, brush generously with the miso-brown butter glaze, and return to the oven for 5 minutes.

Remove and drizzle with a mixture of honey and chili flakes.

Finish by garnishing with toasted pepitas, fresh pomegranate arils for a tart pop, and chopped cilantro.
