Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a large rimmed baking pan with nonstick spray; set aside. Place acorn squash in a large bowl. Whisk together 1/4 cup honey, butter, olive oil, brown sugar, salt, and crushed red pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle over squash to coat. Transfer squash mixture to prepared baking pan; spread to a single layer. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until fork-tender, turning halfway through. Arrange squash on a serving platter. Tear burrata cheese into large pieces; place on top. Sprinkle with pistachios and pomegranate arils. Drizzle with additional 1/4 cup honey. Garnish with fresh sage and black pepper, if desired.
