    🥘 Maple Cinnamon Roasted Butternut Squash

    I just love to use Maple and Cinnamon along with Salt, Pepper, Olive Oil and Rosemary to roast my Butternut Squash. It makes it sweet and that hint of Cinnamon tastes so amazing.

    I love Cinnamon everything. Infact, every time i reach for that bottle of ground Cinnamon, I feel myself smiling. You know, my mom always say that I use a lot of Cinnamon in my recipes. But I am like, its just a teaspoon and a little Cinnamon in everything makes it taste so damn good. Are you really like me? Do you love Cinnamon???

    Okay, so if you don't. It's alright. Don't fret, I have used just 1 teaspoon of Cinnamon in this recipe. However, if you're not a fan of Cinnamon, you might want to reduce the quantity down to 1/2 tsp. Just a hint of this amazing spice is still going to flavor the Roasted Butternut Squash perfectly and taste so amazing.
