Notes
Keep in mind that butternut squash shrinks when cooked. 4 cups of raw cubed squash will give you 2 ½ to 3 cups of cooked squash. If you double or triple the recipe, depending on the size of your air fryer, cook the butternut squash in batches. Don't overcrowd the air fryer. Cooking time will vary by a few minutes depending on the model of your air fryer
