Ingredients:
7 3/4 cups butternut squash, peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt

Pinch of black pepper
Directions:
- Preheat convection oven to 350°F or conventional oven to 375°F.
- Add squash to a parchment-covered or oil sprayed sheet pan.
- Cut any extra-large pieces, so size of squash pieces are similar.
- Melt the butter in a small pot, then add the brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and pepper. Mix to combine thoroughly.
- Equally divide the butter mixture among pans, then stir until squash is well coated.
- Roast, uncovered, until cooked through and lightly browned, about 20-30 minutes in a convection oven or 30-35 minutes in a conventional oven.
