Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or butter
1 medium acorn squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon tamari or soy sauce
½ teaspoon grated fresh ginger
Salt and pepper
Directions:
Adjust the oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil the cut squash and a rimmed baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of oil. Place the squash cut side down on the baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes.
While the squash is in the oven, mix the remaining oil, maple syrup, soy sauce, and ginger together in a small bowl.
Remove squash from the oven and turn squash; prick insides all over with a fork. Drizzle maple syrup mixture among the halves; season with salt and pepper. Continue to roast an additional 10 to 20 minutes or until the flesh is easily pierced with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
Serves: 2
