For this recipe, you’ll need a small butternut squash, peeled and cut into cubes.
To cut butternut squash, use a sharp chef’s knife and remove the bulb first. You’ll be left with the neck and bulb as separate pieces, which makes it easier to handle. You can then peel the neck by running your peeler along it. If you’re going to use the whole squash, you can also peel the bulb.
Once the squash is peeled, you can cut the two large pieces in half. Then, scoop out the seeds. Continue to slice the squash into strips and dice from there.
For this butternut squash pizza recipe, you’ll need to roast the squash at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the butternut squash cubes in olive oil and arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Check the squash after 20 minutes, if it’s soft, remove it from the oven and set it aside in a bowl.
Voila! Prepared and beautifully roasted butternut squash, ready for your pizza!
