Tips & Tricks (5)

Uniform Cube Cutting 🔪
Cut butternut squash into evenly-sized 1-inch cubes to ensure consistent cooking and prevent some pieces from burning while others remain undercooked.
Pat Dry for Crispiness 💧
After cubing, pat the squash pieces completely dry with paper towels before tossing with oil and seasonings to achieve maximum crispiness and caramelization.
Single Layer Arrangement 📐
Arrange squash in a single layer without overcrowding the air fryer basket to allow hot air circulation; cook in batches if necessary for optimal browning.
Strategic Seasoning Layering 🌶️
Apply brown sugar and seasoning blend after the first 8 minutes of cooking rather than at the start to prevent burning and achieve a caramelized glaze instead of blackened spices.
Shake and Check Method ✨
Shake the basket halfway through cooking (around the 10-minute mark) to ensure even browning on all sides and check for doneness by piercing with a fork.
