Maybe you’ve heard of “hot honey” before. Well, this is the same concept, but better. Pour it on everything. Hot Maple Syrup is the new king of sweet and spice.
Don’t get me wrong. I love honey. But, maple syrup has a special place in my heart. I use it all the time. Pour it in cottage cheese with some frozen blueberries and cinnamon. Sweeten barbecue sauce or make sweet tea. I freakin LOVE it. So, when I was coming up with a recipe for Sausage Stuffed Acorn Squash, it just seemed natural for me to drizzle some maple all over it….and why not spice it up a bit.
