Acorn Squash with Apple Topping

2 acorn squashes
2 apples
2 tablespoons margarine
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
4 tablespoons brown sugar

1. Cut the acorn squashes in half vertically (with the stem of the squash at the end of one half and the bottom of the squash at the end of the other half) and scoop out the seeds.
2. Dice the apples into 1/2 inch pieces, and mix in a bowl with the cinnamon and half the brown sugar.
3. Place the acorn squashes upright on a baking pan, with the insides of the squashes pointing up. If a squash does not stand upright, cut off the bottom tip so that it is flat.
4. Fill the hollow of each squash with the margarine, then add the apple mixture, until just above the rim of the squash.
5. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake the squashes on medium-high heat (400 degrees) for 35-45 minutes, until they are just tender.
6. Remove the aluminum foil from the pan, sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon of brown sugar over each squash, and bake for another 5 minutes uncovered.
