Maple-Soy Roasted Acorn Squash

makes 2 servings

1 small acorn squash, cut in half lengthwise, seeds removed, and sliced in 1/2" half-moons

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

1/2 tablespoon soy sauce

fine sea salt

freshly ground black pepper

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, and soy sauce.

3. Set the sliced acorn squash on the prepped baking sheet. Use a pastry brush to coat one side of the squash with the maple-soy mixture. Then season with salt and pepper. Carefully flip each half-moon over and repeat, so that both sides are evenly coated with the sauce. Drizzle any remaining sauce over top the squash.

4. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until tender and caramelized. Serve immediately.
