Butternut Squash Pie by Elana

This is my photo....as you can see I had to eat it before I took a picture. Since no one likes squash in my house, I will be eating this all by myself but that will not be a problem.

2 medium butternut squash, cut in half, seeded
3 tablespoons butter or grape-seed oil (I use grape-seed oil)
2 eggs (I use large eggs)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg (I use 1/2 tsp)
½ teaspoon celtic sea salt (I use regular sea salt and decrease amount to 1/4 tsp)

1. Bake squash in the oven at 350° for 40 minutes, until soft
2. Scoop squash out of skin, discarding skin
3. Place squash in food processor with butter (or oil), eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt
4. Puree until smooth and creamy(I do not put it in a food processor and I just mix it all up in a bowl...I don't like doing dishes)
5. Place in a 9-inch tart pan or a casserole dish and bake at 350° for 40 minutes (I used a 8x8 glass pan)
6. Serve
