Butternut Squash Dip ready to serve with Focaccia Thins

Ingredients

  • 2 cups butternut squash, peeled & diced
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon DeLallo Private Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon each salt & pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 10 sage leaves
  • 1-2 pieces of burrata
  • Pomegranate seeds
  • DeLallo Glaze for Cheese
  • DeLallo Focaccia Thins

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk the maple syrup, olive oil, salt, pepper and cinnamon. Add in the butternut squash and toss to coat. Spread on the parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for around 20 minutes until tender.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter over medium-high heat. When it begins to bubble, add the sage leaves and fry for 1-2 minutes per side, lowering the heat to low to prevent the butter from burning. Remove from the pan and place on paper towels, and save the butter for drizzling.
  • To serve: on a shallow dish, layer the butternut squash and top it with the burrata. Add pomegranate seeds and fried sage leaves. Drizzle with the brown butter and balsamic glaze and top with a little flaky sea salt. Enjoy with DeLallo Focaccia Thins.
