Candied squash / pumpkin. In Mexican culture often eaten with a side of milk or (my choice) milk poured on top. With oat milk of course. This recipe is SO GOOD!

Instructions

Peel squash, remove seeds and cut into chunks. Add to a pot with the water, piloncillo, cloves, cinnamon & vanilla. Cover with lid and cook on medium heat. After 15 minutes, move the lid an inch to the side so it can release steam. Move around the squash every 5 minutes and continue to cook for 35 minutes or until squash is caramelized and soft! Serve with a side of oat milk or pour the milk on top of the warm candied squash. A sprinkle of flakey sea salt on top is also recommended.
