For a deeper flavor, try using brown butter instead of regular butter. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, cooking until the milk solids turn golden brown and the butter has a nutty aroma. Let it cool slightly before spreading on the squash. A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg adds a warm, comforting touch to the dish. Feel free to experiment with other types of squash, such as acorn or butternut, for a variation in flavor and texture. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving.
