Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Set aside.
Step 2
Wash the squash with water and dry. With a sharp knife, cut off the ends of the squash. Next, cut the squash in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. Cut the squash into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
Step 3
Place the rounds on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss with your hands until well coated. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Roast for 15 minutes and remove the pan from the oven. With a spatula, flip the squash over. Drizzle the squash evenly with the maple syrup.
Step 5
Return the pan to the oven and bake for 5 to 10 more minutes, or until the squash is tender and golden. Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. If desired, drizzle with a little extra maple syrup and garnish with parsley and pomegranate arils. Serve immediately.
