ACORN SQUASH SLICES

Roasted acorn squash slices are a favorite with my family. This recipe has a sweet maple flavor from syrup and an appealing nuttiness from pecans. It's easy, too, because you don't have to peel the squash. -Richard Lamb, Williamsburg, Indiana

  • Cut the acorn squash in half vertically. Scrape out and discard the seeds. Slice each squash half horizontally into 1-inch half moons. Transfer the slices to a large bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the Aleppo pepper, if using.
  • In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Keep cooking, swirling the pan often, until the milk solids are golden brown and the butter smells irresistibly nutty. Immediately add the white wine vinegar. Remove the pan from the heat and swirl in the maple syrup.
  • Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the browned butter sauce over the squash (reserve the rest of the sauce in the skillet for later). Toss to coat. Arrange the squash in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the squash is caramelized and tender (a knife should slide through without resistance), about 30 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through.

  • Place a rack in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil and maple syrup.
  • Halve, seed, and slice the squash into 1-inch-thick crescent slices. Arrange the slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the tops with half of the olive oil/maple syrup mixture.
  • Add the brown sugar and pecans to a food processor fitted with a steel blade and process until the pecans are finely ground. Add the salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper and pulse to combine. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture over the top of the brushed squash slices, reserving the other half.
  • Place the squash in the oven and roast for 5 minutes, until the brown sugar begins to melt. Remove from the oven and, using tongs, a fork, or very quick fingers, flip over each slice. Brush with the remaining olive oil/maple syrup mixture and sprinkle them with the remaining brown sugar mixture. Return the baking sheets to the oven and continue roasting until the squash slices are fork-tender, about 20 additional minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
