Ingredients

  • 2 acorn squash, halved crosswise, seeds and fibers scooped out
  • 2 small McIntosh apples, halved, cored and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 4 teaspoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cups apple cider

Method

  • Slice off the bottom of each squash half so that they stand flat, being careful not to cut into the flesh.
  • Place in a medium-size roasting pan.
  • Fan half of an apple in the cavity of each squash half.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of butter and 1/4 cup of the cider to each.
  • Pour the remaining 2 cups of cider into the roasting pan.
  • Cover the squash loosely with aluminum foil.
  • Roast until the squash is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Place 1 squash half on each of 4 plates and serve immediately.
