Apple-Stuffed Acorn Squash

My Mom had this recipe among the ones I acquired from her after she passed away. Since it's freezing outside and we had no intention of venturing out,I decided to go through them. I saw this recipe and since I had all the ingredients I thought I'd try it.

What you need

1 Acorn Squash

1 1/2 cups Tart Apple (I used Granny Smith)

2 Tablespoons Apricot Jam

2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar

2 Tablespoons toasted Pecans

1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon

1 Tablespoon Butter divided

1/2 Teaspoon salt divided 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Cut squash in half scoop out seeds

Place squash halves in a pan cut side down with 1/4 in water

Bake for 35 minutes.

While squash is baking combine the apple,jam,brown sugar,pecans,cinnamon.

Remove squash from oven,and turn over. Season each half with 1/2 teaspoon salt,place 1/2 teaspoon of butter in each half. Spoon half the mixture into each half. Bake for another 30 minutes or until tender. If apples begin to brown tent the pan loosely.
