Ingredients
  

  • 2 Honeynut squashes halves, deseeded
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

For the crumble

  • 6 tablespoons gluten free flour or all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter unsalted, melted

For the apples

  • 2 large apples diced small
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Dash all-spice
  • Pinch nutmeg
  • Sprinkle ground clove

For the glaze

  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk, water, or bourbon
  • 1 tablespoon maple or honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat oven to 425°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the 4 squash halves to your prepared pan. Oil both sides of each half. Place flesh side down. Roast 25-30 minutes.
  • In the mean time, make your crumble. In a small bowl, mix flour, sugars, and butter with a fork until crumbs form. Set aside. * Double recipe is you like a lot of crumble.

For the apples

  • In a medium pan over medium low heat, melt your butter then add your sugar and apples. Let them come to a simmer and then add your spices. Stir until apples are just fork tender.

To assemble

  • Remove squash from the oven. Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of each making large hole for the filling starting at the top of the squash. Fill with apples, reserve the juice. Sprinkle on your crumble then pour residual apple butter juice over the crumble.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes.

For the glaze

  • Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. If too thick, add a touch more liquid, if too thin add more powder. A little liquid goes a long way. Start small.
  • Drizzle over your spice apples stuffed squash with a dollop of ice cream, optional. Enjoy!
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave.
