Notes

  • Salt the squash — We’ve realized that squash casserole can easily get watery. To avoid ending up with a liquid mess on our hands, we salted the slices first and rested them for half an hour, which was enough to drain the excess moisture. Give it a try!
 
  • Seasoning matters — We’d recommend adding some more salt and pepper after transferring the mixture into your baking dish. Do the same after topping the squash mixture with the cracker-butter mixture, and you should be fine.
