Ingredients
Scale
1 delicata squash, halved lengthwise, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
Pinch of salt and pepper
1 sheet of frozen puff pastry, thawed (from a 17.3-ounce box)
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon hot sauce
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons shaved Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Heat oven to 400°F. In a medium bowl, toss the squash, shallot, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread into a single layer on a large baking sheet.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes, tossing once until the squash is browned and crisp tender.
Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Unfold the thawed puff pastry on the parchment paper.
Brush pastry with beaten egg. Bake 5 to 7 minutes, or until the bottom of the pastry begins to brown and top begins to puff.
Evenly place the shallot on the pastry then arrange the squash in an overlapping pattern as needed and leaving a 1/2″ border.
In a small bowl, stir together remaining teaspoon olive oil, honey and red pepper sauce. Brush mixture over the squash slices. Top with goat cheese, shaved Parmesan and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bake until pastry is deep golden brown and cooked through, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
