For those that prefer more bacon, use 8 strips and cut into thirds width-wise.
For those who prefer less bacon, cut 4 strips in half length-wise and then thirds width-wise.
Wrap 1 piece of bacon around 1 piece of squash.
Place squash on rimmed baking tray, with ends of bacon meeting on the bottom.
Repeat with remaining squash pieces.
Bake for 10 minutes; flip and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Depending on how crispy you like your bacon, it may be done or may need another 5 minutes.
Remove squash from baking tray, and brush top of bacon with maple syrup.
Makes 24 appetizers.
Notes
*If you don’t have maple syrup, you can sprinkle a small amount of brown sugar on the bacon. Place coated appetizers under a broiler or brulée with a kitchen torch.
