Butternut squash stick dessert

Butternut squash stick dessert

Ingredients

  • ½ lb butternut squash
  • ¼-½ cup crème- I've used table crème and coconut crème, whipping cream can be used, too. The coconut crème was delicious and a great alternative for dairy-free or vegan cooking.
  • Rice paper- I found this at Whole Foods Market

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut the butternut squash
  2. and scoop out the seeds. Cut the squash into 1 in
  3. pieces and steam the squash until tender. About 10
  4. minutes. Mix the squash with crème. Start with ¼ cup
  5. and add as needed, making sure it does not get too
  6. loose. Heat the squash with the crème for another 2
  7. minutes. Prepare the rice paper according to package
  8. instructions. (Soak it in warm water for 5 seconds,
  9. then use.) Scoop some of the squash onto the rice
  10. paper and roll into a thin stick and place on a cookie
  11. sheet. Repeat until all of the squash is used. Bake
  12. squash sticks at 375 degrees for 15 minutes.
