Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Peel the butternut squash, cut it in half lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds. Place the halves flat side down on a cutting board.
  • Using a sharp knife, make thin slices across each squash half, cutting about three-quarters of the way through. Be careful not to slice all the way to the bottom.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, honey or maple syrup, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Place the squash halves on a baking tray. Brush them generously with the olive oil mixture, ensuring it seeps into the slices. Cover with foil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the squash is tender and slightly caramelised on the edges.
  • Once cooked, transfer the squash to a serving platter. Sprinkle with fresh thyme and the optional pecan & pomegranate seeds.
