Ingredients

  • 2 honeynut squash halved and seeded
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp red chili flakes
  • 1/4 cup toasted pepitas
  • 2 tbsp pomegranate arils
  • fresh cilantro for garnish
  • sea salt to taste

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
Place the halved honeynut squash on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush lightly with oil, and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized at the edges.
3
While the squash roasts, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to foam and turn a golden-brown, nutty color.
4
Remove from heat immediately and whisk in the white miso paste, maple syrup, and chili flakes until emulsified into a silky glaze.
5
Once the squash is tender, brush the miso-butter glaze generously over the flesh.
6
Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to allow the glaze to bubble and penetrate the squash.
7
Transfer to a platter and garnish with toasted pepitas, pomegranate arils, and fresh cilantro for a vibrant, crunchy finish.
