Cinnamon Roasted Butternut Squash is tender and caramelized with the warm flavor of cinnamon. It's gluten-free, vegan and is perfect as an easy side dish or tossed in salads and grain bowls!
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the butternut squash on a large rimmed baking sheet. Add the oil, cinnamon and salt, and toss well to combine, then spread in an even layer.
Roast for 35-40 minutes or until tender and caramelized, checking for doneness after 30 minutes as all ovens vary. Remove from heat and adjust the seasoning as necessary. Enjoy!
