How Honey is Made

To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°.
Cook squash in a pot of boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well. Combine squash, apples, and currants in a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish.
In a small saucepan, heat honey, butter, and lemon juice. Whisk until butter is melted. Pour honey mixture over squash. Sprinkle nutmeg over top. Bake uncovered for 1 hour.
