Ingredients:
2 medium butternut squash
1/4 c. (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 c. maple syrup (optional)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Place squash on baking sheet and bake 60 to 70 minutes, or until a knife can be inserted into squash. Remove from oven and let cool slightly, 15 to 20 minutes.

Cut the squash in half lengthwise; scoop out the seeds and discard. Using a spoon, remove the flesh and place in a casserole dish. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Serve immediately or refrigerate and reheat at a later time.
