I love roasted acorn squash, but <em>don&rsquo;t<\/em> love the time it takes to bake in the oven. Once I discovered how easy it is to make in the air fryer I&rsquo;ve never looked back! This handy little kitchen gadget makes cooking this deliciously sweet, savory, and nutty squash as quick and easy as possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this recipe for <strong>Air Fryer Acorn Squash<\/strong>, you&rsquo;ll not only learn how to cook perfectly tender acorn squash in the air fryer, but also how to season it just the way you like. Choose from any of these delicious flavor options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Simple Roasted Squash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brown Sugar Cinnamon Squash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rosemary Garlic Squash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sweet &amp; Smoky Squash<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The air fryer cooks the squash a lot more quickly than the oven, but you&rsquo;re still left with a sweet and fork-tender squash with golden edges &ndash; and in about half the oven cook time, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This air fryer squash recipe is also a great way to save oven space when baking for the holidays. Make some roasted acorn squash in your air fryer this Thanksgiving and Christmas and you&rsquo;ll still have plenty of oven space for my <a href=\"https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/classic-vegan-stuffing\/\">Classic Vegan Stuffing<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/dijon-garlic-roasted-potatoes\/\">Dijon Garlic Roasted Potatoes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><!-- .block-callout__inner --><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-you-need-for-air-fryer-acorn-squash\"><strong>What You Need for Air Fryer Acorn Squash<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the acorn squash, you&rsquo;ll need just a handful of simple ingredients to bring some serious flavor to every bite. Pick and choose from the 4 flavor varieties to find your favorite!

You only need one medium to large squash for this recipe, or even more if you plan on serving a crowd.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Olive Oil<\/strong>: we need some sort of fat to tenderize and brown the air fryer squash, no matter which seasoning option you go with. Olive oil is a great choice, but melted vegan butter will also do the trick.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maple Syrup<\/strong>: the warm and cozy squash flavors are perfectly complemented by maple syrup. Make sure you use real, Grade A maple syrup for the best flavors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Brown Sugar<\/strong>: a pinch of brown sugar is combined with cinnamon to make Brown Sugar Cinnamon Squash. Coconut sugar should work well as a substitute.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Herbs and Spices<\/strong>: depending on the flavor variety you choose, you may need cinnamon, fresh or dried rosemary, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and\/or salt and pepper.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-make-the-best-acorn-squash\"><strong>How to Make the Best Acorn Squash<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"887\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/air-fryer-acorn-squash-recipe\/?tp_image_id=27829\" data-pin-nopin=\"nopin\" src=\"https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AirFryer_Acorn_Squash_Process_FromMyBowl-1200x887.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AirFryer_Acorn_Squash_Process_FromMyBowl.png 1200w, https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AirFryer_Acorn_Squash_Process_FromMyBowl-736x544.png 736w, https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AirFryer_Acorn_Squash_Process_FromMyBowl-768x568.png 768w, https:\/\/frommybowl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AirFryer_Acorn_Squash_Process_FromMyBowl-400x296.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"block-callout layout-beta has-background has-nonary-background-color\"><div class=\"block-callout__inner\">\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Slice<\/strong> the acorn squash in half lengthwise and <strong>scoop<\/strong> out the seeds with a spoon. <strong>Save<\/strong> the seeds for roasting or <strong>discard<\/strong> them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stir<\/strong> the oil and maple syrup together in a small bowl. <strong>Add<\/strong> the additional seasonings of your choice (except for the brown sugar or salt). <strong>Brush<\/strong> both sides of the squash with the oil mixture, then <strong>sprinkle<\/strong> the salt and brown sugar over top (if using).&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Air fry<\/strong> the squash, cut side up, until it&rsquo;s fork tender and has browned edges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Serve<\/strong> the acorn squash while it&rsquo;s still warm with your favorite main dishes.

Or, use the oven roasting instructions to cook more at once.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Roast the squash in the oven instead<\/strong>. You can roast a whole lot of squash at once in the oven instead. Lay each halved and seasoned squash cut side up on a baking sheet and roast on the top rack of a preheated 400&ordm;F oven for 40 to 50 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"serving-suggestions\"><strong>Serving Suggestions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter which way you season it, air fryer acorn squash is a comforting cold-weather side dish.
