Notes

  • Add any type of seasoning you like to the butternut squash. I like Cajun seasoning.
  • Coat the squash with melted salted butter for a slightly different flavor.

All air fryers have different wattage and may cook at different rates. You may need to adjust the time or temp for the best results.
