Baked Squash Rings

1 acorn squash (1/2 lb)
1 teaspoon maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon water
1 apple, cored, sliced

Wash the squash, then slice it crosswise into 1/4-inch rings. Remove the seeds and pulp. Layer the rings in a casserole dish, top with maple syrup, dust on cinnamon and sprinkle with water. (As an added touch, slices of apple can be placed in layers alternating with the squash rings.) Bake, covered, in a preheated oven at 275�F for about 30 minutes. The timing and temperature are not critical, so this can bake along with other dinner dishes.
