Use a tart apple variety like Ida Red, Jonathan or Northern Spy in this "easy-bake" side dish from Organic Valley farmer Maureen Knapp.

Ingredients

2 pounds butternut squash, peeled, cut into cubes (or buttercup squash)
3 apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/2-inch thick
¹⁄₂ cup packed brown sugar
4 tablespoons Organic Valley Butter, melted
1 tablespoon flour (or arrowroot powder)
1 teaspoon sea salt
¹⁄₂ teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange squash in a large, ungreased baking dish. Scatter apple slices over the top. Combine remaining ingredients and drizzle evenly over squash-apple mixture. Cover dish and bake 30 minutes. Remove from oven and stir the dish to mix everything together and meld the flavors. Continue baking until squash is tender, another 20-30 minutes.
