Need another side to go with your turkey? I know everyone likes those quick and easy recipes. Check this out. Classic Baked Acorn Squash. You can find the recipe at simplerecipes.com. It sort of sounds boring but wait until I tell you what else it is baked with.
This recipe is explained for one acorn squash since it's easier to give directions but make more because everyone will want their own. Trust me!
1 Acorn Squash (cut in half)
1 Tablespoon butter
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 Teaspoons Maple Syrup
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, mix the butter, brown sugar, and maple syrup in a bowl then divide it evenly between the two halves of acorn squash. Get a pan and put in a tablespoon of water just so the skins of the squash don't burn while baking and then bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes.
The mixture will loosen and become thick and sort of a soupy texture. It soaks into the squash so that each bite is sweet and tasty. It's as simple as that! It's almost like a dessert! It's delicious! Let me know what you think.
Have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy with your family and friends!
Sounds delicious! Although my Thanksgiving dinner has been served, this is a great fall recipe when squash are in abundance! You should call it "Acorn Candy". Thanks!
