  1. Preheat oven to 425f and set rack to middle level. Clean the exterior of the acorn squash. Using an 8-inch chef's knife, slice in half, remove seeds, and cut into 1-inch thick half-moons.
  2. Toss the acorn squash with the olive oil. Spread out the acorn squash on 1 or 2 parchment paper lined baking sheets making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Season the pieces with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Roast the squash for 20-25 minutes or until tender. Remove the pans from the oven and drizzle the honey onto the pieces. Sprinkle on the grated cheese, crushed hazelnuts, and sage. Return to the oven and cook for 5-7 more minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy!
