Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir cinnamon and brown sugar through the melted butter; remove from heat and stir crushed saltine crackers into the butter until moistened.
3
Pour enough water into a baking dish to be about 1 inch deep. Lay the acorn squash into the water with the rounded sides down. Fill the cavity of the squash with the saltine cracker mixture.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until the squash is easy to pierce with a fork, about 45 minutes.
