How to Prepare Maple Roasted Acorn Squash [Vegan]

Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the squash in half lengthwise, scrape out the seeds, then cut each half in half (you will have 8 quarters). Place the squash pieces on the prepared baking sheet, cut side up.
Stir together the oil and maple syrup in a small bowl. Evenly brush this mixture onto the squash, then sprinkle with sea salt. Place the squash in the oven and roast for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the squash is fork-tender, golden, and caramelized on the edges. Allow to cool slightly, then serve with a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds and dried cranberries on top.
Enjoy!
