This is another variation of squash casserole, but the applesauce makes it lighter than most. Easy to make and very tasty! Prep time includes time to cook fresh squash. Ingredients:
2 cups applesauce |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup heavy cream |
1 1/4 cups mashed cooked squash, fresh or 1 (10 ounce) package frozen squash |
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg |
6 tablespoons butter, melted |
2 eggs, beaten |
1/2 cup soft white breadcrumb |
1/2 cup slivered almonds |
Directions:
1. Mix together applesauce, brown sugar, salt, heavy cream, squash, nutmeg, 4 Tbsp of the melted butter, and eggs.
2. Place in buttered, 1 1/2 quart, shallow casserole.
3. Mix together bread crumbs, remaining 2 Tbsp butter, and almonds.
4. (This can be made a day ahead up to this point.) Bake uncovered at 375 degrees for 35 minutes.
5. Or it can be frozen and baked later at 375 degrees for 55-65 minutes (if still frozen).
