Maple-Roasted Acorn Squash

For the easiest, most delicious way of cooking winter squash, let the oven do the work: roasting will bring out and concentrate the squash’s natural sweetness, while requiring little hands-on effort.
I have made roasted acorn squash over and over again, and will do so over and over again. The squash are simply hollowed out, filled with butter and maple syrup, and roasted and served whole. I love how impressive they look when plated. Keep the trimmed tops, with the stems attached, and add them to the baking pan, too, as they will serve as charming edible lids.
