Butternuts are beautiful! They’re the perfect size and shape for stuffing; scoop out the seeds and fill with any stuffing of your choice.
Pop the filled butternut in a steam bag and microwave for 3-4 mins on high or place in a colander of boiling water and steam till soft. When they’re cooked through, I put mine in a hot oven for an 10-15 minute bake.
