4 acorn squash
1 lg. apple, chopped
1/3 c. walnuts, chopped
1/2 c. raisins
1/2 c. sugar
2 tbsp. butter
1/2 c. maple syrup

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash squash. Cut in half and scrape out seeds and strings. Place face down on baking sheet and bake until squash is tender when pricked with a fork. Combine remaining ingredients in saucepan and heat together until blended and soft. When squash is done, remove from oven and fill cavities with filling. Pour a little maple syrup over each top, just to moisten and return to oven to heat through.

MICROWAVE: Allow 6 to 7 minutes per squash. After filling, reheat only long enough to heat filling through.
