Method:

Preheat the oven to 220ºC. Remove the seeds and any stringy bits from the inside of the squash halves with a large spoon, scraping them out. Place the squash halves in an oven dish. Sprinkle the sugar, the spices and a sprinkling of salt over the squash pieces. Dribble the honey or maple syrup over each piece. Drizzle a little olive oil over the squash pieces – this will add flavour and help to conduct heat so the squash will cook. Place the baking dish in the oven and cook for about 30 minutes or until soft.
