Preparation:
Halve squash and remove seeds. Spray lightly with cooking spray; place face down on a baking sheet and bake about 45 to 60 min in a 350 F oven or until tender when tested with a fork. Meanwhile, coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray; over medium heat saute onion and celery until tender. Add salt, pepper, allspice, apple and 1 Tablespoon apple juice; cook just until apple is tender. Stir in cranberries, raisins, and 1 Tablespoon apple juice; cook until cranberries pop. Add brown sugar; stir until dissolved. Stir in bread cubes and nuts. If desired, a few drops of almond extract may be added. Sprinkle baked squash with salt (optional) and pepper. Divide stuffing evenly between the halves. Bake for 15 minutes at 375 F.
