Ingredients:

• 1 butternut squash cooked ( I cook by cutting in half lengthwise and placing cut side down in a glass baking dish with ½ cup of water.    Bake covered in foil for 1 hour at 350)
• 2 apples
• Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger to taste
• I TBSP Coconut oil
• ¼ cup of chopped pecans

While butternut squash is cooking, cook the sliced apples on the stove top  To cook the apples, melt the coconut oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Sauté apples for 2-3 minutes, then place ¼ cup of water in the pan, reduce the heat and cover and cook the apples until they are tender (you can go ahead and add some of the spices to the pan). 

When squash is done, scoop out the seeds and discard. Place the remaining butternut squash in a blender or food processor along with the apples, then add spices to taste. Blend until smooth. When you are done, top the dish with chopped pecans and serve!
