Ingredients
3 apples (~4 cups sliced), cut into ½-inch slices
1 medium butternut squash (~6 cups sliced), peeled and cut into ½-inch slices
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1.5 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut apples into ½-inch slices leaving the skin on.
- Peel, cut the squash in half, scoop out the seeds, and cut the squash into ½-inch slices.
- Tip: cut the ends off of squash and microwave on high for ~30 seconds on a microwave safe plate to peel easier.
