Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 onion, sliced in thick half-moons
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 10 to 12 oz. frozen butternut squash puree
  • 1 9-inch refrigerated pie crust (or homemade)
  • 1/4 cup crumbles blue cheese
  • 5 fresh sage leaves, chopped or 1 tsp. dried
  • rubbed sage
  • Ground pepper

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; and the onion and season with a little salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, thaw the squash in the microwave according to package directions. Mix squash and onions together right in the skillet. Season with 1/4 tsp. salt or more to taste.
  4. Place the crust on a parchment-lined baking sheet; spread with the squash mixture, leaving a border about 1 1/2 inches wide. Sprinkle with the blue cheese and sage. Season with plenty of pepper. Fold the border of the crust over the edge of the filling. It will cover about 1 inch of the filling, leaving the middle exposed.
  5. Bake until the crust is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve warm, sliced into wedges like a pie and accompanied by a green salad.
