I tried this sweet and crunchy casserole out on my 80-year-old parents and they loved it! Butternut squash now has a place at our holiday table year after year. —Barbara Busch, Henrico, Virginia


Test Kitchen tips
  • This dish is silky and smooth, but if you want a little different texture, you can skip pureeing the pineapple.
  • Feel like sweet potatoes? Go ahead and substitute them for the butternut squash.
