1. Roasted Maple Squash
Prep time: 10 minutes || Cook time: 30 hour || Total time: 40 minutes || Serving: 4
Ingredients
- 2 acorn squash or other type of squash
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 3 tbsp olive oil (or coconut oil, unsalted butter etc.)
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- Trim the top and bottom off each squash, then cut in half from top to bottom.
- If you do not want to consume the skin, it is easier to peel it off right before eating, rather than trying to peel the acorn squash before baking.
- Remove the inner seeds and strings.
- Lay each acorn squash half on its flat side, and cut into 1-inch thick slices.
- In a small bowl, mix together the maple syrup, oil, ground cinnamon, ground cloves and salt.
- Brush the maple mixture onto both sides of the squash.
- Roast for 25 minutes on the first side, then flip each slice over and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until caramelized and soft.
