Since acorn squash have started showing up at the Green Market, I bought one and decided to try the recipes I've been seeing online. The most common suggestion is to cut the squash in half, seed it, and bake face up with a tablespoon of butter and brown sugar, syrup or honey (some suggest syrup and sugar) about one teaspoon each. Some recipes say to bake for 40 minutes, some say an hour, most agree on 375 degrees. I baked them for about an hour with syrup. They got very soft and dark brown to black on the upper edges. The flavor was very good, but the syrup overtook the flavor of the squash themselves, which had their own lovely sweetness when I could get an unadulterated piece. I'm definitely making them again next week, if not this weekend, but I'm only going to put a small drop of syrup in them so I can get a more balanced flavor.
