butternut squash pie-cake

The wackiest, weirdest part of the cake—even more so than its split cake versus pie identity—is that it's filled with chunks of butternut squash that have been roasted with orange, olive oil, cardamom, and the teeniest amount of brown sugar and honey. Perforated by chunks of a vegetable that's flavored just as often with cayenne as it is with maple syrup, the cake tightropes between savory and sweet. <br /> <br />So it's neither a pie nor a cake. And it's neither a dessert nor...okay, it's a dessert. But there are vegetables in the ingredient list! <br /> <br />Inspired by Nanny's Rosh Hashanah Apple Cake in Saveur: http://www.saveur.com/apple-cake-rosh-hashanah-recipe
