Spiced Acorn Squash
What You Need:
  • 4 medium-sized acorn squash
  • ½ cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon grated nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons melted butter (1 quarter-pound stick)
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • Eight ½-inch pieces of bacon
  • About 2 cups boiling water

  • How To Cook:
    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Cut each squash in half and with a teaspoon scrape out the seeds and fibers. In a small bowl combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt and melted butter, and stir them together thoroughly.

    2. Arrange the squash in a shallow ovenproof baking dish large enough to hold them all comfortably. Spoon an equal amount of the spiced butter mixture into the hollow of each squash and over that pour a teaspoon or so of maple syrup.

    3. Top with a piece of bacon. Now add boiling water to the baking dish-the water should be about 1 inch deep. Bake in the middle of the oven for about 1 hour, or until the squash can be easily pierced with the tip of a small, sharp knife. Serve at once.
