4 | Medium-sized acorn squash | |
16 | teaspoons | Honey |
8 | tablespoons | Butter or margarine |
Fresh ground pepper to season |
Directions
Slice the squash in half crosswise and scoop out the pulp and seeds.
Trim the bottoms, if necessary, so that the quash will stand hollow side up.
Place 2 teaspoons honey in the hollow of each squash, then add 1 tablespoon butter or margarine to each and a twist or two of fresh ground pepper.
Place squash in a large, shallow baking pan and bake, uncovered, in a moderate oven, 350 degrees, for about 2½ hours or until the squash are tender.
