Such a tasty and nutritious way to fix acorn squash. I use any apple I usually have on hand and I don't bother peeling because the skin is supposed to be good for you, right? When baking, make sure you cover with foil otherwise it will come out too dry. Then when you add in the butter and honey, just cube the butter and drop them on top and in between the apples. Makes it easier!

I have been married for over 40 years and never made Acorn Squash before. My husband was very pleasantly surprised with this side dish. He really enjoyed it and so did I. I modified the recipe by using a heart healthy butter substitute. I also cut the cooking time by microwaving for 10 minutes on high instead of baking for 30 minutes. I used a covered Corning Ware pan and then just continued with the original recipe.

Amazing! Everyone loved it, even the youngest (18mos.) who ate two bowls. followed basic instructions except for rubbed the halves with brown sugar like someone suggested, and didn't melt the butter (we used a vegan variety), the oven melted it for us.

This was really good. A great way to get in some vegetables, as well as TONS of fiber. My husband liked it the first "sweet" layer, then he gave the rest of the squash to me. I did it a little different though. I rubbed the seeded squash with about 1 tbsp brown sugar per side then tossed the diced apples in the melted brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and added nutmeg, clove,and ginger spices. After that I drizzled a little butter over the top of that. Very good and I will make again. Although next time I think I will pierce the flesh to let the sweet juices get all throughout the squash as well as let it get more tender.

This came out perfectly! Used the basis instructions, but on the second half of cooking, just added apples, brown sugar, and chunks of butte. The greatest fall combo yet!

This was a big hit with my squash loving family. I found some small squash with a flat bottom at the local Farmer's Market And cut the tops off so that everyone had their own. The only change I made was to salt and pepper the squash cavity with salt and pepper.

This recipe is excellent! I served it with a pork roast and twice baked potatoes. I was looking for something different from the traditional acorn squash recipes that are roasted with maple syrup or brown sugar. I'll use this recipe again and again!

This is really tasty! Depending on how sweet you like it, you may have to adjust the honey. I added a bit of cinnamon/sugar to the final product for a bit more sweetness.

I thought this recipe was actually very good. It was easy and quick to prepare, and a great way to use the fall foods. I did modify only a little, by changing the oven temp. to 450 for the last half of the cook time. I didn't melt the butter (the oven will do that!) but cut into small chunks and set on the apples, and then drizzled the honey on. I didn't use as much honey, but I'm sure that would be wonderful - I'm just trying to cut down on sugars. I also added nutmeg to the cinnamon. The end result was good - tender and tasty, without being too sweet or buttery. My husband really liked it, as well, and he is never a big fan of veggies. Thanks for the creative idea!
