Calabaza en Dulce
In Mexican culture, Calabaza en Dulce is often enjoyed with a side of milk or (my choice) milk poured on top! Easily made vegan if you use non dairy milk!

- Peel squash, remove seeds and cut into chunks. Add to a pot with the water, piloncillo, cloves, cinnamon & vanilla. Cover with lid and cook on medium heat.
- After 15 minutes, move the lid an inch to the side so it can release steam… move around the squash every 5 minutes and continue to cook for 35 minutes or until squash is caramelized and soft!
- Serve with a side of oat milk or pour the milk on top of the warm candied squash. ❣️I love a sprinkle of flakey sea salt on top too!
