By 1For_Him

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2 small acorn squash, halved and seeded
• 3/4 cup raisins
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1/2 cup water

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg; spoon into squash halves. Sprinkle with raisins. Top each with 1 tablespoon of butter. Wrap each squash half individually in heavy-duty foil; seal tightly.
Pour water into a 5-qt. slow cooker. Place the squash, cut side up, in slow cooker (packets may be stacked). Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or until the squash is tender. Open foil packets carefully to allow steam to escape. Yield: 4 servings.
