Equipment

  • 1 knife
  • 1 roasting dish

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium delicata squash scrubbed and halved lengthwise, seeds removed
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
