Instructions
  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. 2. Toss the butternut squash with 2 tablespoons of the Holiday Harvest Infused Olive Oil Blend, salt, black pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg until evenly coated.
  3. 3. Spread the squash in a single layer on the prepared pan and roast for 20 minutes.
  4. 4. While the squash roasts, stir the pecans with maple syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of Holiday Harvest Infused Olive Oil Blend.
  5. 5. Remove the pan from the oven, scatter the maple pecans over the squash, and roast for 10 to 12 minutes more until the squash is tender and the pecans are toasted.
  6. 6. Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

For extra caramelization, make sure the squash cubes are dry before seasoning and avoid crowding the pan. If you want a little more sweetness, drizzle on a teaspoon of maple syrup right before serving.
