Use a sharp knife to cut the acorn squash in half and remove the seeds. Be careful not to cut yourself.
You can use other types of winter squash, such as butternut squash or pumpkin, for this recipe.
For a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the maple syrup mixture.
Serve the maple roasted acorn squash with a dollop of vegan sour cream or yogurt on top for extra creaminess.
Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
