Sweet Dumpling Squash

I had two dumpling squash sitting around begging to be cooked so I made this recipe I found on the blog Dreamy Dish (found the blog on the Googles). It's easy and basic and yummy!

Sweet Dumpling Squash

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Cut the squash in half, and remove the seeds and extra bits with a spoon.  Turn upside down, and poke some holes in the skin with a fork.  Turn it back over, and place each half into a baking dish filled with an inch or so of water.

In each squash half, put the following ingredients, sprinkling spices on the top edge, too:

1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon brown sugar

Bake uncovered on the middle oven rack for 40-45 minutes, or until tender.  Each half enthusiastically serves 1!
