PEAR, CARAMELIZED ONION AND SAGE BUTTERNUT SQUASH SANDWICH
Pear, Caramelized Onion and Sage Butternut Squash Sandwich
Ingredients
- 1 Tribeca Oven Multigrain Loaf
- 2 tbsp Olive oil divided
- 2 tsp Fresh Sage chopped
- 2 tsp Kosher salt divided
- 1 small Butternut Squash peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4 inch planks
- 1/2 bunch Kale stemmed and cut into 2 inch pieces
- 4 medium Yellow Onions thinly sliced
- 1 Bosc Pear seeded and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
- 1 cup Shredded Gruyere Cheese
- 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter divided
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, toss the butternut squash with 1 tablespoon oil, sage, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, until coated. Place on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet, and bake until tender, about 25-30 minutes. 15 minutes before butternut squash is finished cooking, add kale in a single layer around butternut squash. Continue to bake until kale is wilted. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, about 20-25 minutes. Season with remaining salt and pepper.
- Slice Tribeca Oven Multigrain Loaf widthwise in 8 1/2-inch-thick slices. Spread the cranberry sauce evenly over 4 slices of bread. Top bottom half of bread with an even layer of the butternut squash, onions, pears, kale and Gruyere cheese, and then the remaining bread slices.
- In a large skillet or griddle, melt butter over medium heat. Working in batches if necessary, toast sandwiches until light golden-brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining sandwiches and butter. Slice and serve.
