We have several seasoning suggestions in the recipe! That’s it! You’ve just made yourself some baked acorn squash!
How long to bake acorn squash
The exact amount of time it takes to bake acorn squash depends on how thick you slice it. 1″ thick slices will take 30-35 minutes to bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit. We always leave the skin on as it’s difficult to peel prior to cooking the squash. Then we taste test it at the table and decide if we’re eating it or not.
