Baked Yellow Squash Casserole
Ingredients
  • 3 pounds yellow summer squash, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary ingredients and materials.
2
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if using a metric scale).
3
Rub a 2-quart baking dish with some cooking oil to prevent food from sticking.
4
Submerge the squash into a large saucepan, cover it with water, and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
5
Allow the squash to cook until it becomes tender, taking around 10-15 minutes.
6
Drain the excess water from the cooked squash and transfer it to a large mixing bowl.
7
Use a potato masher or a fork to mash the squash until it reaches your desired consistency.
8
Combine the mashed squash with 1/2 cup of bread crumbs, finely chopped onion, eggs, 1/4 cup of melted butter, sugar, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
9
Mix all the ingredients together until they are fully incorporated and there are no visible lumps.
10
Pour the squash mixture into the prepared baking dish.
11
Drizzle any remaining 1/4 cup of melted butter over the top of the mixture, followed by a sprinkle of remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs.
12
Place the dish in the preheated oven and let it cook until the squash is fully cooked through and the top is golden brown, taking approximately 1 hour.
