Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoon light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 stick very cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 tablespoon butter, room temp
  • 1 Gala apple, peeled and chopped into small pieces

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F
  2. Cut the acorn squash in half. You’re gonna have to use your muscles here.
  3. Using a spoon, de-seed and remove the fibers from the squash.
  4. Lightly oil the inside of the squash and add 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon to each half flesh.
  5. Turn the squash, flesh side down onto a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until just tender.
  6. While it’s baking, make the streusel: Add the 1/2 cup brown sugar, flour, oats, cinnamon, salt, and 3/4 stick butter in a bowl.
  7. Using a pastry cutter, cut it until it forms a crumble.
  8. Add the apple pieces into the streusel.
  9. Remove the squash from the oven and flip them over gently.
  10. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon brown sugar to each squash.
  11. Divide the apple streusel in half and add to each squash. Mound it up high; gently press down.
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the flesh is fork tender and the streusel is barely crisp on the top and the apples are soft.
