Squash Custard is a creamy, dessert-like dish made by blending roasted or steamed squash with milk, eggs, sweeteners like honey or sugar, and warm spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. Originating from traditional American comfort food recipes, it is a delightful way to highlight the natural sweetness of squash. High in essential nutrients like vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium from the squash, it also provides protein and calcium from the eggs and milk. While it offers a range of health benefits due to its nutrient-dense ingredients, the addition of sugar or cream can increase its calorie content, so moderation is key. Squash Custard can be served warm or chilled, making it a versatile treat for any season while sneaking in a serving of vegetables in an indulgent form.
