Squash pie is a comforting dish often originating from American cuisine, where it is enjoyed as a savory or sweet baked treat. Made primarily with cooked, pureed squash—commonly butternut or acorn squash—it is combined with eggs, milk or cream, and spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or sage, depending on whether it's sweet or savory. Typically encased in a pie crust, it may also include sugar or honey for sweetness or cheese and herbs for a heartier flavor. Squash pie is nutrient-rich due to the squash, which is high in vitamins A and C, fiber, potassium, and antioxidants. However, the addition of cream, butter, or sugar can increase calorie and fat content, making moderation key. This dish is ideal for incorporating vegetables into your diet while enjoying the comfort of pie, but opting for lighter ingredients can make it even more health-conscious.
