2. In a large bowl, toss the squash and onion with the oil; coat all pieces with the oil.
3. Arrange the squash and onion mix on the baking tray in a single layer. Roast veggies for about 25-30 minutes or until tender.
4. A few minutes before squash is done, melt butter in small skillet over medium-low heat. Mix in pecans, maple extract and cinnamon and cook for 1-2 minutes; Stir often so as not to burn the pecans! Remove from heat.

6. Serve immediately.
