Number Of Ingredients 9

10 small (about 12 ounces each) sweet dumpling squash or acorn squash
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
Zest of 2 oranges, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground ginger
Orange Ginger Sweet Potato Puree
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 pint fresh kumquats
10 fresh sage, leaves

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Remove and discard top third of each squash, as well as the pulp and seeds.
  • Coat inside of each squash with 1 tablespoon brown sugar; sprinkle with orange zest and ginger. Bake on a parchment-lined baking pan until tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Fill each squash with about 1/2 cup puree. Bake until puree is heated through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Melt butter and granulated sugar in a skillet over medium heat. Stir until sugar has begun to caramelize. Add kumquats; cook until glazed, 3 to 4 minutes. Add sage leaves; toss to coat in glaze. Garnish squash with kumquats and sage.
