Ingredients
- 2 acorn squash cut into quarters, seeds removed
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- salt and pepper
- olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
- Place squash wedges on a parchment lined baking tray, you should have 8 wedges if you started with 2 squash.
- Rub all over with a very light coating of olive oil. This keeps the skin tender and totally edible.
- Divide butter and brown sugar evenly between the wedges. This is not an exact science, but if you are a stickler, place 1/2 tablespoon of butter and 1/2 tablespoon of sugar in each cavity.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper and transfer to oven.
- Roast for 45 minutes until very tender and edges have browned.
- Serve while warm with an extra sprinkle of flaky salt if desired
