Melt the 5 Tbsp butter in a large pot over medium heat. Once melted, let cook for 1-2 additional minutes until it starts to turn brown. Add the butternut squash, red pepper flakes, and sage. Stir to combine. Continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, to soften the squash.
Add the orzo, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

Stir in the remaining 1 Tbsp butter, the parmesan cheese, and the white balsamic vinegar.
Spoon into bowls, serve, and enjoy! Garnish with a pinch of flakey salt (optional).
