Baked Acorn Squash

1 Acorn Squash, halved
2 pats of butter
2 teaspoons of honey or maple syrup
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
Salt & pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Scoop the seeds out of each half with a spoon
Add 1 pat of butter, 1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of
brown sugar, salt and pepper to the hollow scoop of each half.
Place upright on a greased cookie sheet and roast for 20 to 30 minutes or
until tender when flesh is poked with a fork.
This is a delicious, quick and easy side dish that is great anytime of the
year.

2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup apple cider
2 tablespoons raisins
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon maple flavoring

Slice squash into 1-inch thick rings, discarding seeds. Arrange in shallow
baking pan. Bake, covered, in a 350 oven for 35 to 45 minutes, or until
just tender. Season with salt and pepper. In medium saucepan, combine
brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir in apple cider. Cook,
stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly. Stir raisins, butter and
maple flavor into the sauce. Spoon over squash. Continue baking,
uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until squash is tender. Serves 4.
