Ingredients
Scale
4 cups butternut squash, cubed
2 cups Brussels sprouts, halved
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 cup cranberry sauce (smooth)
2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare your vegetables: Peel and cube the butternut squash into bite-sized pieces. Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and slice them in half.
Toss with flavors: In a large bowl, combine cubed squash and halved Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and honey (or maple syrup). Toss until evenly coated.
Roast away: Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, shaking halfway through for even cooking.
Glaze it up: Once roasted, remove from the oven and drizzle cranberry sauce over the warm vegetables. Toss gently to coat everything in the glaze.
Serve hot: Transfer to serving plates and garnish with fresh herbs or nuts if desired.
