Recipe Description
One of our family dessert favorites especially during this time of year is homemade Butternut Squash Pie! Yes, it is similar to pumpkin pie, but also different. It is also easier to make from the fresh fruit. Butternut squashes are easier to handle and to deal with vs. fresh pumpkins. Plus, this pie also couples well with pumpkin pies around a holiday table. Any and all of the above make it a special treat. The recipe is quite easy too. It can sometimes feel intimidating to make a pie from scratch. Well, this is an easier one to go with.
