How long does it take to cook squash in the oven?

Cooking squash in the oven typically takes about 25 to 45 minutes, depending on the type and size of the squash. For example, halved butternut or acorn squash generally takes around 30 to 40 minutes at 400°F (200°C). Smaller varieties or diced squash may cook faster, while larger pieces might require more time. It's best to check for tenderness by piercing with a fork.
