Instructions: Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Season the cut sides of the squash with salt and pepper and set them, cut side down, on a baking sheet. Bake for about 1 hour, or until the flesh is tender and caramelized on the bottom. Let cool on the baking sheet. Meanwhile, peel and core the apples; cut them lengthwise into eighths. Slice each piece crosswise 1/4 inch thick. Transfer to a bowl; toss with the sugar and cinnamon. Spread the apples on a baking sheet; bake 30 minutes, or until tender and brown. Peel the squash and transfer it to a bowl along with any caramelized bits from the pan. Mash coarsely. Add the apple pieces with any caramelized bits. In a saucepan, bring the honey and butter just to a boil. Add the squash, stir well and season with salt and pepper.

Serves 8.
