1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp. salt

1 - Cut the end of the squash and peel. Peel and core the apples. Cut the squash and apples into 1 inch cubes and place in casserole dish.
2 - Combine remaining ingredients except pecans and spread over squash and apples. Top with chopped nuts if desired.
