mashed acorn squash

Mashed Acorn Squash

acorn squash, (cooked however you prefer)

salted butter, (at room temperature)

brown sugar, (more or less to taste)

cinnamon

nutmeg

Kosher salt, (to taste)

Cut, seed, and cook the acorn squash either by roasting it in the oven, microwaving it, or pressure cooking it in an instant pot. When cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh of the acorn squash and place in a large mixing bowl.

Add ½ cup salted butter, ¼ cup brown sugar, ½ tsp. cinnamon, and ¼ tsp. nutmeg, and a generous pinch of kosher salt to the squash. Use a handheld mixer to combine and whip until squash is light and fluffy, about two minutes.

Taste, adjust seasoning, adding more sugar, spices, or salt to your preference, and serve warm with extra butter on top.
