Mashed Squash - Testing

1 - Meh. I can't remember where this came from, but I found it far too sweet and the cinnamon was overpower. I thought to myself when I was putting it in: "that looks like too much cinnamon." But did I heed myself? NooOOoooOoo!!! I added the cayenne, but not enough, you couldn't taste or feel any heat. I would like to find a good mashed squash recipe, even though my dear one doesn't really like squash. I suppose that is my challenge; I've succeeded before in making things with ingredients he didn't think he liked, but can I do it again?!?

1-2 lbs turban squash
olive oil
2 Tbsps melted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
pinch cayenne
salt and pepper to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 400'F, brush the inside of the squash with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  2. Place on a baking sheet for 45 minutes.
  3. When done remove the insides of the squash and place in a mixing bowl. Add the butter, nutmeg or cinnamon and brown sugar until smooth. Serve warm.
