How to Make Butternut Squash Sage And Mozzarella Gratin
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Steam or boil the cubed butternut squash until tender (about 15-20 minutes).
- Mash the cooked squash with 1 tablespoon of butter until smooth. You should have approximately 1 1/2 cups of mashed squash.
- Lightly grease a small casserole dish (approximately 8x8 inches).
- Spread the mashed squash evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the squash.
- In a small skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent (about 5 minutes).
- Stir in the bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and sage. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the cheese.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the gratin is bubbly.
