Honey Roasted Butternut Squash with Cranberries and Feta – This sweet and savory side dish is perfect for the holidays and loaded with Fall flavor!
Who has two thumbs and just rocked her self-implemented post deadline!? This girl!
Of course it took posting a photo of this plate-o-yum on IG to give me the push I needed. I have some very awesome friends with some very impatient squash (squashes? squashi? I think I’m overthinking this!) awaiting this recipe. I had to deliver!
Without further ado, here’s my all-time favorite butternut squash recipe. Hands-down. No question.
Honey Roasted Butternut Squash with Cranberries and Feta
This savory sweet side dish is perfect for the holidays and you should totally make it right now!
Well, make it now, and then make it AGAIN for the holidays.
All of them.
Duh.
so . . . how is it?!
Delightfully delicious! The combination of sweetness from the butternut squash and honey paired perfectly with the tart and juicy cranberries is a thing of beauty!
The dish is super customizable too, so feel free to make it as sweet or sassy as you’d like. The feta adds a delightful twist, and can easily be swapped for an uber creamy goat cheese as well. I hope you love this tasty holiday side dish as much as we do! It’s become a staple in our house and I have a feeling it will be for years to come!
This simple side can be whipped up with just a few fresh ingredients and is loaded with Fall flavor.
As an added bonus, as the butternut squash roasts away it fills the house with the most delicious aromas. I had to hold myself back from climbing in the oven with it after the twenty minute mark. It was a little less Sylvia Plath and a little more was more “LET ME AT THAT SQUASH!” I may have stolen a few cubes to munch on when I added the cranberries. So good!
Honey Roasted Butternut Squash with Cranberries and Feta
This sweet and savory side dish is perfect for the holidays and loaded with Fall flavor!
Ingredients
- 3 lb large butternut squash (peeled + chopped)
- 1-2 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
- salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste
- 1-2 cups fresh cranberries (add a little, or a lot!)
- 2-3 TBSP honey plus extra to taste
- 1/4 cup finely crumbled feta
- ground cinnamon to taste
- fresh or dried parsley to garnish, optional
Instructions
-
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F.
-
Lightly drizzle or spritz a baking sheet with olive oil.
-
Add cubed squash to the sheet along with another drizzle of olive oil.
-
Sprinkle with a light layer of salt, pepper, and garlic powder, based on taste preference.
-
Roast at 400 F for 25 minutes on the center rack.
-
At the 25 minute mark, pull out the oven rack, and add your fresh cranberries to the roasting pan.
-
Return to the oven for 10-15 minutes or until the cranberries have started to soften and burst a bit, resembling really juicy craisins vs fresh firm cranberries.
-
Remove from oven and add a sprinkle of cinnamon (approx. 1/8-1/4 tsp depending on preference) along with feta and honey. I listed the honey measurements I used, but depending on whether you used fresh cranberries or dried, sweeten to taste.
-
Garnish with parsley for a burst of color and dig in while it's hot!
Recipe Notes
Feel free to use fresh or dried cranberries for this dish.
Dried will be sweeter, while fresh with have a delightful punch of tartness to pair with the buttery squash and sweet honey. Let your tastebuds be your guide and have fun with it!

Sooooo I read somewhere that when honey is cooked it loses a lot of it’s coveted antibacterial properties, boo. I still bake with it because it’s an awesome natural sweetener and I adore it so, but if I have the option to keep it as close to raw as possible, I do. Hence adding the honey after roasting the squash and cranberries in this recipe. The fruit and veggie medley is still just warm enough to allow the honey to cover the dish as a deliciously sweet glaze, but not so scorching that it’s spending 30+ minutes in my oven losing all it’s fabulous benefits.
File this under things I tell myself so I can eat more honey.
If you’re as squash obsessed as I am right now, you should totally take your Fall/Winter menu up a few notches and try my Cheesy Garlic Parmesan Spaghetti Squash and Butternut Cauliflower Soup.
SO DELICIOUS!

make ahead and advance prep tips and tricks
Need to make this dish in advance? I’ve done some experimenting and here’s what I’ve got so far!
I’ve found the best advance-prep results were when I pre-roasted the squash for around 25-30 minutes and then before serving, I tossed the room temperature squash back in the oven along with the cranberries for an additional 10 minutes or so until the cranberries started to burst and the squash crisped back up around the edges (yet still creamy and buttery on the inside!). I reheated it in the oven just before serving so the feta and honey were added to the still-warm dish and it worked great!
I have also cooked the squash and berries in their entirety and popped them in the fridge. I let it come to room temp for a bit then reheated them in the oven for around 10 minutes before serving, adding the cheese/honey after as well. The first method had more of the texture I was looking for but the results from this method were still good!
Let me know if you find another method that works great for you as well!
Last year I even slapped the leftover honey roasted butternut squash with cranberries on an epic Thanksgiving leftover sandwich (with all the fixings) and it was amazing!
Antoinette
Hello! I’m so looking forward to making this recipe for Thanksgiving! Thank you for the recipe and for posting it! Will Parmesan or Pecorino Romano cheeses substitute well for Feta, please?
Jenn
Hello Antoinette! Parmesan and Romano are fantastic with butternut squash but I have no idea how the pairing would go with the honey and cranberries. It may conflict? A test run could help you know for sure. A little goat cheese is typically he swap for feta but if neither work for you I would personally try it dairy-free and then adjust flavors from there, to taste. Hope you have a marvelous Thanksgiving! xo
Kelly
Could you sub the cranberries with beets? I think it may be amazing- thoughts?
Jenn
If you’re a fan of beets (I AM!) I think that would be amazing! You could even add some cranberries in with the beets for that extra kiss of sweetness. I’d say adjust cook times for the beets as needed and adjust the honey and seasoning to taste and go for it!
Sheri
So so good. I had to stop myself from eating the whole thing.
Jenn
Yay!!! I’m the same way lol! So glad you enjoyed it!
Bridgiette
Can this be easily reheated? Make ahead?
Jenn
Hi Bridgiette! I enjoy this one best fresh from the oven, but a few readers in the comments have reheated and enjoyed it! I measure and prep all the ingredients separately and have them ready to go in the fridge on the holiday I want to serve it and then just toss and roast right before dinnertime. Hope this helps!
Kelly
This was absolutely delicious. My family Loved it!!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.
Judith
I am going to make this delicious looking side to take along with a meal I’m taking to friends ( but you can be sure I am dishing a bit up for myself too)
My question is can I spritz with canola oil instead of olive oil?
Jenn
Canola oil works great! So excited you’re trying this dish! xoxo
Leta M Saul
I have made this a couple of times for holiday meals. This Christmas I added toasted pecans to give a little crunch. I never add the honey because the squash is sweet enough for me – but thats a personal preference. I also like to add a little extra on the cranberries.
Connie
OH HAVE MERCY!!!!!!
This is absolutely THE most
addicting vegetable yet!! I doubled the recipe, knowing I would snitch squash here and there (glad I did). Followed recipe too the letter, but added a sprinkling of light brown sugar over the top..YUMMY…there were NO leftovers to be found…a definite keeper!!!!!
Christina
Most people are like, I made this for Thanksgiving dinner and I’m like, hi I made this for myself for lunch 🤣 It was great. I like goat cheese instead of feta, and it was perfect. I also threw some pomegranate seeds on it for a healthy topper. Thank you so much for the recipe!!
Jenn
You’re my hero, lol! Love the pom seed topper – such a fun addition!
Kelli
I made this today for our family Thanksgiving. All I can say is WOW! This was delicious. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.
Jenn
Happy Thanksgiving, Kelli! I’m so glad y’all enjoyed the recipe! xoxo
carmela
Hey! excited to try this out, but I only have frozen cranberries, can this work?
thanks
Jenn
Hi Carmela! I think another reader mentioned they used frozen berries and it worked so it’s totally worth a try! I’d keep an eye on timing with them since it may differ a little from fresh.
Deb Chernesky
This was delicious and so colorful! I added two chicken breasts (time depends on size). Next time I am going to try pork chops with it!
Colleen Simpson
This squash recipe is so delicious! So special with the addition of cranberries bursting with flavours!
Teisha
loved LOVED loved this last year, this year I want to do it again but do you think yams would work as well?? In charge of the yams this year and want to do something different haha
Jenn
Ooh it could totally work with yams! I’ve done it with sweet potatoes which are super similar in consistency/cooking, right? I’m so glad you’re loving the recipe and giving it another go! xoxo
Tiina
Jenn! I made this for Christmas Eve, Cranberry sauce is a big part of my Estonian traditional meals, but I have crazy leftovers. This recipe satisfied my need for cranberries and resulted in no leftovers! Used the entire bag of cranberries. The honey balanced the tartness without anyone knowing it was sweetened. You are the veggie whisperer! Thank you <3
Steve
In step 3,the squash is roasting on a baking sheet, and in step 6 it’s described as a roasting pan. Is that a typo, or another pan (to clean)?
Jenn
I interchange the words; only one pan to clean! So sorry for the confusion! xo
Brianna
This is now a family favorite recipe for the holidays. I’ve made it over and over and it turns out so delicious. Savory, sweet, and tart. I tend to just eyeball it now by making sure there’s a proportionate amount of cranberries and feta to the squash.
Marion Davis
The recipe says to roast squash on baking sheet for 25 minutes. Do you remove the squash and put in a roasting pan with cranberries or do you add the cranberries to the baking sheet?
Jenn
Just add the berries to the sheet and you’re good to go Marion! Happy Thanksgiving! xo
Jen
Can this be done in an instapot? Would like to make for thanksgiving but there will be no room in the oven
Jenn
Hey Jen! Short answer: TOTALLY! Longer answer – the roasting gives so much flavor and since this soup is crazy good when reheated, I would honestly just make it the day before (with the roasting vs the IP) as part of your advance prep! It’ll save you time and cleanup on Thanksgiving day that way!
Pam
It also works great with sweet potatoes
Jenn
Yessss! Love it!
Susan
Delicious! I made this for an early thanksgiving dinner. I substituted goat for feta with fresh cranberries. So yummy! I will definitely make this again.
Karen Goodall
I made this last evening and it was fantastic! I used Craisins since I haven’t seen fresh cranberries in the stores yet. Since Craisins are a little sweeter, I only used one tbsp. of honey. In addition to the cinnamon, I sprinkled a little ground cloves on the top. Delicious! Next time, I will try to remember to add some parsley! 🙂
Karen Goodall
Does anyone know about how many cups of cubed squash this recipe requires? I know it says 3 large squash, but it is always helpful to me to know the actual measured amount.
Karen
I think I just answered my own question. I thought it said “3 large squash,” but now I see it says “3 pound squash.”
Jenn
Hi Karen! Yup a 3 pound squash will be perfect! Though I would happily eat my way through 3 squash as well lol 😉
Karen
Thank you, Jenn!
Ann
Wow! I just have a whole pumpkin in my refregerator, and I was thinking about what I can cook from it. Be sure to keep this recipe! I love all the ingredients separately, and together they will probably make a real bomb. Thank you for the idea! I am sure it will turn out to be real yummy, which I will cook again and again.
Charlie15
Made this for Thanksgiving dinner yesterday – delicious! I made it exactly according to the listed recipe with the only addition being some pumpkin seeds mixed in. Loved it, will be making again. Thanks!
Jenn
Yay! Hope you had a marvelous Thanksgiving, Charlie!
Stacey
Super easy and yummy! Big favourite with our Thanksgiving dinner!
Jenn
Thanks Stacey! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
kelly
Jenn
I have a recipe similar to this that I use, but your addition of cranberries is a fabulous mix of nutrition and color. I can’t wait to try it! I have a request/question please…I write for a local area magazine and I would like to feature your recipe here with credits to Peas and Crayons of course. Would it be possible for you to send me a picture of your Honey Roasted Butternut Squash with Cranberries and Feta end product – the photo or one like it featured here??? I can send you a sample of what we do so you can be assured of our quality – just let me know what you need. AND…thanks for the recipe!
Jenn
Hi Kelly! Feel free to shoot me an email! xo
Heather
If I use dried cranberries, do I still bake them 10 minutes?
Jenn
Hey Heather! Depending on the size of your squash cubes you’ll want to add the 10 minutes to your initial roast time to get the nice and tender, if that makes sense? Bigger cubes will take longer while smaller ones will roast fast! For the dried cranberries, my favorite technique is to pour some hot water over them for a few minutes to plump them up. It sort of reconstitutes the dried fruit – and you won’t need to roast those at all, just toss them into the warm squash. Hope this helps! xoxo
Travis Mask
I have made this recipe so many times. It delicious. I have also made it with extra vegs such as red onion, sweet potatoes, carrots and fresh garlic cloves. This recipe is good year round. Thank you for a great recipe.
Kathie
My 3-year-old son and I loved it. The men in the house did not care for it, though. I’ll make it again some time for a gathering of just mothers and toddlers.
Amy
This was so good!! My husband said that I should be making dishes like this for the holidays versus the traditional sides so it was definitely a hit. Made the dish as instructed with fresh cranberries and it came out wonderfully. Will be making again.
Renee
This is absolutely delicious! This is the third year in a row that I´ve made it, and I think that I like it better every year. The colors and flavors are so delightful. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe and also thank you for the making-ahead tips!
Susan Schreiber
This looks great. Can I make ahead and reheat?
Jenn
Hey Susan! I think I need to update the post with this info since everyone seems to be looking for prep ahead advice, lol! Love it! Here’s what I’ve done so far when it comes to experimenting with make-ahead options:
I’ve found the best advance-prep results were when I pre-roasted the squash for around 25-30 minutes and then before serving, I tossed the room temperature squash back in the oven along with the cranberries for an additional 10 minutes or so until the cranberries started to burst and the squash crisped back up around the edges (yet still creamy and buttery on the inside!) I did the reheat just before serving so the feta and honey were added to the still-warm dish and it worked great! I have also cooked the squash and berries in their entirety and then reheated those just before serving in the oven for around 10 minutes, adding the cheese/honey after as well. The first method had more of the texture I was looking for but the second was still good! I’ve also slapped the leftovers on an epic sandwich the next day and basically swoon-status over here!
Katie Chrysler
Can this be reheated easily?
Jenn
Hey Katie!
Are you looking to make it in advance or just wondering about any leftovers? Here’s my experimentation with both so far, lol!
I found the best advance-prep results were when I pre-roasted the squash for around 25-30 minutes and then before serving, I tossed the room temperature squash back in the oven along with the cranberries for an additional 10 minutes or so until the cranberries started to burst and the squash crisped back up around the edges (yet still creamy and buttery on the inside!)

Happy Thanksgiving Katie! xo
Dawn
Can you substitute frozen cubed butternut squash for fresh?
Jenn
Hi Dawn! The Kitchn has a pretty cool technique for roasting frozen butternut squash that you could try with this recipe! Because I haven’t tried it yet I can’t guarantee results but it does look promising! xoxo
AC
Hello,
Am I able to make ahead with too
Much of an impact? Make tonight for tomorrow?
Jenn
Hi AC!

As an alternate method, I cooked the squash and berries in their entirety and then reheated those just before serving in the oven for around 10 minutes, adding the cheese/honey after as well. The first method had more of the texture I was looking for but the second was still good!
Hope this helps and that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
AC
Thank you!
Happy Thanksgiving~
Jacob
I’m making this for thanksgiving in a few days and I can’t wait to taste it! Thanks for the recipe
Joyce Phelps
This was a fantastic mix of flavors and quite festive.
Will make it again for the holidays.
Jenn
Yay!!! So stoked it earned repeat status! Thanks Joyce!
Nicole
Do we turn the squash halfway through total bake?
Jenn
Hi Nicole! It’s not needed at all but you certainly can if you’d like. xo
madcitymomma
To evenly coat squash, place squash in large bowl and then add oil and salt. Shake covered bowl to coat squash.
Debi
Jen, have you ever made this as a salad to be served chilled or at room temp or is served warm the best?
Jenn
Hey Debi! Warm is my favorite, hands-down but a few people have noted they love it chilled! Maybe combined with a salad like my Cranberry Quinoa Salad with Candied Walnuts? That could be epic! Let me know if you get a chance to experiment! xoxo
Tanya
LOVED IT! We did double the cranberries. I’ve put this side in my meal prep boxes and it reheats well (just hold on the feta until you reheat) it’s not bad cold either.
Jenn
Delish!!!!!
Christine
This looks amazing! I would like to add to our Thanksgiving menu but have you ever tried making it the day before and reheating in a casserole dish?
Jenn
Thank you Christine! So I have a few tricks up my sleeve for that! I found the best advance-prep results were when I pre-roasted the squash for around 25-30 minutes and then before serving, I tossed the room temperature squash back in the oven along with the cranberries for an additional 10 minutes or so until the cranberries started to burst and the squash crisped back up around the edges [yet still creamy and buttery on the inside, yum!] I did the reheat just before serving so the feta and honey were added to the still-warm dish and it worked great!

The first method had more of the texture I was looking for but the second was still good!
Hope this helps and that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Sean Mahan
Mmmm, it’s just the right balance of sweet and feta cheese, I love it.
LEIGH
Leigh again – forgot to mention I used a sweet potato and maple syrup and stevia to taste as that was what I had in the house. Quick and easy and delicious. Feta and cranberries are some of my favourite things!
LEIGH
I keep frozen cranberries in my freezer year round and often make cranberry sauce or cranberry orange sauce during the year. I tried your recipe tonight and loved it!! I would never have thought to do this. I paired it with a stuffed chicken breast. A simple yet elegant Sunday meal. Thank you so much for sharing!! I know this will be one of my favourite meals and very easy to prepare for a quick week night dinner!
Judy
If I want to use already cubed butternut squash, how many bags do I buy for 14 people. And then I’d like to follow your recipe using dried cranberries. Will it work? I’m not much of a cook. How can I make it to impress! Lol
Jenn
Hi Judy! Since sizes of fresh cubed butternut squash packages vary store to store, I’d go by weight. Aim for around 6-7 pounds of fresh butternut squash and double the recipe and you should be good to go! A few people have used dried cranberries and for those you will skip the roasting and instead soak them in some warm water for a few minutes to plump them up and soften the dried berries. Since they’re sweeter than fresh cranberries, the amount you add will vary based on personal taste since the sweetness factor is such a personal matter. You’ve got this!
DV
We loved this but did change a few things. Used precut squash cubes, tossed with olive oil, salt & pepper and roasted. After roasting the squash, added dried cranberries and put back in the oven for 10 minutes to heat through. Then removed pan from oven, added goat cheese, mixed it all together and served. It was delicious. We didn’t use honey because the dried cranberries were sweetened and didn’t use cinnamon. Served it to company (6 people) and everyone loved it. Unfortunately we only had a spoonful of leftovers!
DV
This was delicious! I bought cubed squash and baked it for a long time (at 350 cause I had potatoes in the oven too). The squash released a lot of water so I just baked it until it finally dried up and started to get somewhat crispy. I added pecans, dried cranberries and goat cheese. Didn’t need any additional sweeterners. Served to company and everyone raved about it. Highly recommend. Looking forward to leftovers but sadly I don’t have a lot!!
Mary Ann Rajczewski
I just added this to my Thanksgiving menu this year. With a 16 year old, a 13 year old and a 10 year old, there will definitely be feedback. It sounds delicious. That’s why I’m going to give it a try.
Jenn
I’m excited you’ll be trying it Mary Ann! Hoping it’s a hit with your crew! If they’re not a fan of tart cranberries you can do half fresh half dried or just let them add a little sweetness to taste to balance it out per their preference. I go all out and swirl mine into my mashed potatoes and/or stuffing!
Christi
Have you ever made this with sweet potatoes instead of squash?
Jenn
Hey Christi! I interchange them in recipes a ton – I say go for it! It should be glorious with sweet potato as well.
The Dainty Green Apron
This is absolutely delicious. I made it as a side for this past Easter Sunday dinner and everyone raved about it. I highly recommend!
Vanessa Gomez
This was so yummy!!!!! I didn’t have cranberries at hand so I used raisins instead. Thank you so much!! Will definitely make againV
Sandra Mirolovic
Delicious.Made it for Christmas as a side dish.Served with ham and salad.Great recipe will save it and make it again.
Traci
This is a delicious side dish! My mother has prepared it for us a few times and now I’m going to make it at home. I have a quick question … I’m on a diet and need to calculate nutritional value … about how many servings are in this recipe and what would the serving sizes be? Thanks!
Jenn
So happy y’all love the recipe, thank you Traci! I don’t provide the nutrition facts on it since everyone uses a different size/weight of squash and different amounts of honey/oil so to get a good read, I’d plug the weight of your squash as well as the exact amounts of oil and honey you use into a calculator like myfitnesspal.com so you can get the most close read on the dish you’re about to eat. For the serving size, about a cup of cooked butternut squash is a serving, so depending on the size of the squash you snag will be the number of servings you’ll have. Hope this helps! 🙂
Hugs and veggies!
Jenn
Helena
I love all those colors. I know this is meant to be a Fall dish but I could eat it all year round. Those cranberries with butternut squash are so tempting. Yum!
Linda Taylor
I decided to make this recipe in January when cranberries are out of season, so I had to use frozen cranberries. Also, I thought I had feta in the fridge, but only had goat cheese. Other than those two modifications, I followed the recipe and it turned out just fine. My family loved the tangy cranberries balanced by the goat cheese, butternut squash, and honey. Definitely a healthy recipe I’ll make again!
Susan
This is amazingly delicious! Thank you so much for sharing.
Sherri @ Watch Learn Eat
I totally have to make this! I have been obsessed with butternut squash lately. And since I gave up refined sugar, this is perfect for me! Pinning! ? Happy Holidays to you and your family!
Jenn
Hope you adore the recipe, Sherri, thank you! 🙂 Happy Holidays to y’all as well, hope it’s magical!
Jenn
I have made this before and it was delicious. However, I’m wanting to make it again and a family member is allergic to cinnamon. What would be a good substitute or do you think it would just be good without?
Jenn
Hey Jenn! (great name btw!) You can skip the cinnamon without a swap and it’ll still be great!
Kerry
Slightly sweet, tart dish. Beautiful addition to Thanksgiving table. Use good feta… Worth the cost.
Jenn
Hi Jenn,
Great name! Ha! I made this last year for an expat thanksgiving over here in london and i am making it again today for tonight’s friendsgiving dinner. luckily, i was able to find cranberries in london both years!
since it is a potluck dinner, i made it ahead of time, but took it out a little early and brought the feta, honey and cinnamon with me to add after i reheated it for a couple minutes. Planning to do that again – here’s hoping that i am able to get some oven time again this year 🙂
Thanks for the great recipe – it has become a favorite in my home and I can’t wait to share with family when we move back to the States!
Ann Turner
This looks scrumptious, gonna make it for holiday. I WISH I could print out this recipe without all the darn comments, which use up paper. I bet I am doing something wrong? Easy to fix?
Jenn
Oh yes totally easy fix Ann! Near the top of the recipe card under the photo is a print button that just prints the recipe with one very small photo! Let me know if you need help locating it! So stoked you’ll be making this for the holidays!
Sue
I tried this last Thanksgiving, and it was a big hit. It’s been requested that I make it AGAIN this year. Last year I ended up cooking the squash in the pan with the turkey, and that was really moist and flavorful. It’s also beautiful–really colorful combination.
Jenn
Sue you just made my morning! Thank you! So thrilled it was a hit and that this dish will be on both our tables again this year! 🙂 Have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!
Cathi
Hi Jenn! I’m making this for thanksgiving this year. My original plan was to steam butternut squash (due to oven space) and just pour over an herb butter sauce but then I found this. What do you think about steaming the squash, Then heating some cranberries on the stove, then pouring it all together? Can’t wait to taste this!!
