Ingredients

2 Honeynut squashes halved and seeded
4 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp white miso paste
1/2 cup toasted pecans
10 fresh sage leaves
1 tsp maple syrup
flaky sea salt
black pepper

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Arrange squash halves cut-side up on a parchment-lined sheet, drizzling with olive oil and seasoning with salt and pepper.

Roast for 30-35 minutes until tender and caramelized at the edges.

While the squash roasts, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until it turns a deep amber color and smells nutty.

Immediately remove from heat and whisk in the miso paste and maple syrup until emulsified.

Add the sage leaves to the hot butter for 30 seconds until crisp.

Drizzle the warm miso-brown butter over the roasted squash, top with the crispy sage leaves, and scatter toasted pecans over the top for a satisfying crunch.
