Preparation Steps

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
• In a mixing bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the beaten eggs and vanilla to the mixture, blending well.
• Stir in the butternut squash puree and chopped apples, mixing until combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
• Bake for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
