I so love my [[Air Fryer]] - the best [[Kitchen gadget|kitchen gadget]] ever purchased - It is used endlessly!

This is not really a recipe, just proof that it can be done and how well it works.

I added a teaspoon of [[Spices|spices]] to jazz it up a little - use your favorite spices or [[Herbs|herbs]].

If you need to add [[Salt|salt]] then do that after the [[Butternut squash|butternut squash]] has been [[Roasted|roasted]] as it will cause liquid to leech out of the [[Squash|squash]] if you add it beforehand.

A small [[Butternut squash|butternut squash]] is perfect for 2 people and a large should be fine for four.

The optional accessory: [[Tefal Snacking Mesh Metal Tray / Grid / Basket]] is great for roasting the [[squash]] as it doesn't get broken up by the paddle action.
