A delightful twist on a classic butternut squash bake, perfect for any occasion.
Peel and cube the butternut squash, then place it in a large pot filled with water.
Cut the squash into evenly sized pieces for uniform cooking.
Bring the water to a boil and cook the squash until tender, about 20 minutes.
Test the squash with a fork; it should easily pierce through.
Drain the cooked squash and transfer it to a mixing bowl.
Let the squash cool slightly before mashing to avoid burns.
Mash the squash until smooth, then mix in mayonnaise, chopped onion, beaten eggs, sugar, salt, and pepper.
Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Use a spatula to smooth the top for an even bake.
In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and melted butter.
Mix until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated with butter.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the squash evenly.
Ensure the topping covers the entire surface for a crispy crust.
Bake the dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
Check the casserole halfway through to ensure even baking.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious creation!
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
