Ingredients

    Butternut Squash, 4 cup, cubes
    Egg, fresh, 2 large
    Salt, 1 tsp
    Granulated Sugar, .5 cup
    *Margarine-like spread, Country Crock, regular, 3 tbsp

    Topping

    *Pineapple, canned, 1 cup, crushed, sliced, or chunks
    Egg, fresh, 1 large
    *Flour, white, .25 cup
    Granulated Sugar, .25 cup

Directions

Cook the squash - I prefer to cut it in half, scoop out seeds and wrap in plastic and then microwave until tender. But you can use whatever method of cooking squash you prefer. Once cooked, place squash in a casserole dish and mash. Add sugar, salt and margarine. Beat eggs well and add to mixture while beating well. (If you are making this while the squash is still hot, you don't want the eggs to cook before mixed together.) Set casserole to the side.
Topping: Mix all topping ingred together in a bowl. Pour over the top of the squash.
Bake, uncovered for about 45 minutes. The dish will become light and fluffy (slightly souffle-like)

    People ...be real, this recipe has 3 eggs and serves twelve....this is a healthy recipe...you need to look at the facts and ease up and enjoy rather than grump about sodium, cholesterol, sugar and fat. I'm not saying eat all you want but put it in perspective and relax a little! - 9/24/10

    I don't cook much but I go back to this recipe again and again, esp for pot lucks and big family dinners. Works equally well as a side dish or dessert. I use a 2-lb squash for the proportions listed, add a little more sugar if a 3-lb squash. I like using crushed pineapple for its consistency here. - 1/9/10

    This was absolutely delicious. I added some cinnamon to the squash mixture and used the crushed pineapple. The recipe did not state what temp to cook it at, but I did it at 375 degrees for the 45 min. and that worked well. I am cooking it for a pork BBQ next weekend. - 9/6/10
