A simple yet elegant way to enjoy butternut squash, enhanced by the rich flavor of Jersey butter and fragrant sage.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the squash in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the squash is tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
While the squash is roasting, melt the Jersey butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped sage and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the sage is fragrant and the butter is slightly browned (be careful not to burn the butter).
Remove the roasted squash from the oven and transfer it to a serving bowl.
Pour the sage butter over the roasted squash and toss to coat.
Serve immediately.

For a sweeter flavor, add a drizzle of maple syrup or honey after roasting.
If you don't have fresh sage, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried sage. Add it to the squash before roasting.
You can add other herbs like thyme or rosemary to the butter.
Jersey butter is used for it's high fat content giving it a rich, creamier taste.
