Whiskey Cinnamon Mashed Butternut Squash | Sweet flavor of butternut squash and cinnamon with a little kick from the whiskey.

The flavor profile of this Whiskey Cinnamon Mashed Butternut Squash was wonderful with the sweet flavors of butternut squash and cinnamon; then you get the little kick from the whiskey.

This recipe containing only four ingredients is so easy to make and if you really want to save time, purchase butternut squash that has already been peeled and diced for you.

The only drawback about that is you may not be sure how fresh it is that way so I prefer to take the extra time to peel a whole one myself. The skin is a little tough so just be careful you don't cut yourself in the process.

This recipe for Whiskey Cinnamon Mashed Butternut Squash was delicious and would go perfectly with your Thanksgiving meal or any Fall inspired food gathering for that matter. ~Enjoy!

      You're absolutely correct, I'm sorry it's 10 cups. When I switched recipe cards it inadvertently left off a "0". It's fixed now, thank you so much for letting me know!
