Ingredients

For the Butternut Squash Bites

1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
to taste salt and pepper

For the Hot Honey Feta Drizzle

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon lemon juice
for garnish fresh parsley

Method

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, toss the butternut squash cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned squash on a baking sheet in a single layer.

Cooking

Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the squash is golden brown and crispy.
While the squash is baking, prepare the hot honey feta drizzle: In a small bowl, combine the crumbled feta, honey, red pepper flakes, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.

Serving

Once the squash bites are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Drizzle the hot honey feta sauce over the crispy butternut squash bites.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

Cut the butternut squash uniformly for even cooking. Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to ensure all pieces are crispy. These bites can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to restore crispiness.
