Air Fryer Butternut Squash

Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Microwave the whole butternut squash on high for 2 minutes to soften it slightly. This will make it easier to cut.

Step 3

Carefully cut the softened squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds with a spoon.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Brush the cut sides of the squash with the prepared mixture.

Step 6

Place the squash halves in the air fryer basket, cut side up.

Step 7

Air fry for 35 minutes, or until the squash is tender and easily pierced with a fork.

Step 8

Allow to cool slightly before serving
