Eichelkürbis aus der Heißluftfritteuse

Zutaten

• 2 medium acorn squash
• 2 Tablespoon ghee
• 2 Tablespoon 100% maple syrup (or swap sugar free maple syrup for a lower carb option.)
• 1 Tablespoon chopped hazelnuts
• pinch cinnamon (optional)

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat your air fryer to 400F.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, cut each squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Carefully add the squash to your air fryer basket.

3. 3

   Spoon 1/2 Tbsp of ghee inside each squash half, and use the back of the spoon to rub a little ghee onto the sides and cut side of the squash.

4. 4

   Pour 1/2 Tbsp of maple syrup into each squash half.

5. 5

   Season lightly with salt and pepper and close the air fryer. Cook for 16-18 minutes, until softened and crispy on the edges. Test by poking through the flesh with a paring knife. If it slides smoothly, it's done!

6. 6

   Carefully remove the squash from the air fryer and sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts and cinnamon, if using. Serve immediately.
