KITTENCAL'S BAKED ACORN SQUASH
I have been making this for years it's a simple recipe and always a favorite! you may adjust amounts to taste and of coarse you may increase to as many squash as you like, remember to allow the baked squash to cool slightly so that the brown sugar/butter mixture will thicken --- you will love this!.

Steps:
- Set oven to 400 degrees F.
- Grease a small baking dish with high sides.
- Place each half of squash cut-side up into the baking dish.
- Add in about 1/2 inch water into the bottom of the baking dish so that the skins will not burn and the squash won't get dried out.
- In a small bowl combine the cinnamon with soft butter.
- Coat the inside of each half with 2 teaspoons soft butter, mixture then add in 2 tablespoons of brown sugar to the cavity of each half.
- Drizzle 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup over the brown sugar.
- Bake uncovered for about 1 hour and 10-15 minutes or until the squash is very soft and the tops are browned.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 20-30 minutes (this will allow the brown sugar/butter mixture to thicken slightly).
- Using a spoon drizzle the buttery sugar mixture over any exposed area of the baked squash.
- Serve and enjoy!

ROASTED ACORN SQUASH
Here's a perfectly simple way to prepare one of autumn's finest offerings that came to The Times in 2010 when the Well blog published several recipes from Cooking Light magazine. Just toss slices of acorn squash with honey, olive oil, freshly ground black pepper and salt and pop into a hot oven for about a half hour.

BAKED STUFFED ACORN SQUASH
This makes a substantial vegetarian - or vegan if you leave out the cheese - Thanksgiving main dish. It is another riff on the native American tradition of the Three Sisters - corn, beans, and squash. I used acorn squash here, and it serves as a vessel for the sweet and pungent bean, corn and tomato filling. Acorn squash comes in various sizes; the larger ones, which are sometimes all I can find, take almost an hour to soften and cook through; the finished squash can be cut in half or even into thirds if too big for one serving. With everything that comes on the Thanksgiving sideboard, that will probably be the case. I always bake the squash for about 20 minutes before cutting it in half; they soften up a little bit, which makes it much easier to cut.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place squash on a baking sheet and bake 20 minutes, until soft enough to easily cut in half. Wait until cool enough to handle (about 15 minutes), then cut in half (stem to tip) and scoop out seeds and membranes.
- Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet and add onion. Cook, stirring often, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add red pepper and a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and tomato paste and cook, stirring often, until tomatoes have cooked down slightly, about 5 minutes. Add honey, maple syrup or pomegranate molasses, vinegar, salt and cayenne, and bring to a simmer. Simmer 8 to 10 minutes, until thick and fragrant. Taste and adjust seasonings. Stir in beans and corn and simmer another 5 minutes.
- Oil 1 or 2 baking dishes or a sheet pan that will accommodate all the squash. Season cavities and cut sides of the squash with salt and pepper and brush with olive oil or melted butter. Fill with bean mixture. Mix together bread crumbs, Gruyère and remaining olive oil and sprinkle over the filling. Brush exposed edges of squash with oil. Place in the baking dish or on baking sheet and cover tightly with foil. Bake large squash for 45 minutes, check smaller squash after 30 minutes. The flesh should be easy to penetrate with the tip of a knife. Uncover and return to oven for 5 to 10 minutes, or until breadcrumbs and cheese are lightly browned. Serve hot or warm.

CHEF JOHN'S BAKED ACORN SQUASH
I like how this tastes, but scoring the squash with a knife before baking really makes for a great presentation. It also allows the simple but delicious glaze to penetrate nice and deep.

- Place a rack in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil and maple syrup.
- Halve, seed, and slice the squash into 1-inch-thick crescent slices. Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops with half of the olive oil/maple syrup mixture.
- Add the brown sugar and pecans to a food processor fitted with a steel blade and process until the pecans are finely ground. Add the salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper and pulse to combine. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture over the top of the brushed squash slices, reserving the other half.
- Place the squash in the oven and roast for 5 minutes, until the brown sugar begins to melt. Remove from the oven and, using tongs, a fork, or very quick fingers, flip over each slice. Brush with the remaining olive oil/maple syrup mixture and sprinkle them with the remaining brown sugar mixture. Return the baking sheets to the oven and continue roasting until the squash slices are fork-tender, about 20 additional minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
