In a large bowl, mix together brown sugar, melted butter, flour, salt, cinnamon and mace.
What is mace spice?
Mace (not related at all to the defensive spray) is made from the lacy outer covering of the nutmeg seed and has a more peppery flavor than sweet nutmeg.
Add butternut squash and apples to the bowl, tossing to completely coat. Pour into a prepared baking dish.
Cover and bake for about 1 hour or until squash and apples are fork-tender.

For me, fall flavor equals apples! I love apples in so many applications, both sweet and savory, and I love that canning them in different forms (sliced, diced, spiced or plain, as sauce, jelly, and butter) allows me to enjoy that autumnal goodness all year round.
