How to Make Acorn Squash With Dried Fruit And Granola Compote
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Halve the acorn squash lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and stringy pulp.
- Brush the cut sides of the squash with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Place the squash halves, cut-side down, on a baking sheet and roast for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
- While the squash is roasting, prepare the compote: In a medium saucepan, combine the dried cranberries, raisins, chopped apricots, granola, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is heated through and slightly thickened (about 8-10 minutes).
- Once the squash is tender, remove from oven and let cool slightly. Spoon the warm compote generously over each squash half.
- Serve immediately and enjoy! Garnish with a sprinkle of extra granola, if desired.
