1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
2 To prepare the squash, slice off the stem end and discard. Decide if you want half-moon shapes or rings. For half moons, slice the squash lengthwise down the middle and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Then place the cut sides down and slice across the ridges to make ½″ thick pieces. For rings, slice the squash into ½″ thick rounds and use a spoon to scoop the seeds out of each round.
3 Place the sliced delicata squash on your rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil and sprinkle the salt on top. Toss until the squash is lightly and evenly coated in oil (add another splash if the squash seems dry), then arrange them in a single layer.
4 Bake for about 25 to 35 minutes or until the squash is tender and golden, flipping halfway. Serve as desired.
