Cozy Fall Comfort Food: Butternut Squash & Maple Glazed

Cozy Fall Comfort Food: Butternut Squash & Maple Glazed

July 6, 2025 Written by Ella

I love experimenting in the kitchen, and today I want to share a delicious Fall comfort food recipe that always brings warmth and coziness to my home. This dish is perfect for chilly evenings or lazy weekends when you want something hearty and satisfying.

For this unique recipe, I am going to make a scrumptious Butternut Squash and Maple Glazed Salmon Casserole. The combination of sweet butternut squash, savory salmon, and a hint of maple syrup creates a delightful flavor profile that will surely impress your taste buds.

To begin, you will need the following ingredients:
– 500g butternut squash, peeled and diced
– 400g fresh salmon fillet, cubed
– 1 red onion, thinly sliced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1/4 cup maple syrup
– 1/2 cup chicken broth
– 1/4 cup chopped parsley
– Salt and pepper to taste

For this recipe, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • baking dish
  • skillet

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a skillet, sauté the red onion and garlic until fragrant. Add the diced butternut squash and cook until slightly softened. Season with salt and pepper.

Transfer the butternut squash mixture to a baking dish and place the cubed salmon on top. Drizzle the maple syrup over the salmon and pour the chicken broth around the edges of the dish. Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.

Once the casserole is done, sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for a pop of color and freshness. Serve hot and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors in this unique Fall comfort food dish.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1000g, with 4 servings. Each serving is approximately 250g and contains around 350 calories.

One tip to make this dish even more delicious is to sprinkle some toasted pecans on top before serving. The crunch and nuttiness of the pecans will add a delightful texture to the casserole.

I hope you give this Butternut Squash and Maple Glazed Salmon Casserole a try and make it your own by adding your favorite spices or herbs. It’s a perfect dish for a cozy Fall evening with loved ones. Enjoy!
