Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or spray it with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
Trim the ends of the red kuri squash, then cut it in half from stem to stem. Scoop out the seeds and slice the squash into approx. 1" wide wedges. Set aside in a large bowl.
Whisk maple syrup, white miso paste, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and black pepper until combined. Reserve 2 tbsp of the glaze and pour the remainder over squash wedges and toss with your hands to coat evenly.
Arrange squash wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast at 400°F for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through the bake time. After flipping the squash wedges, brush with the reserved glaze before returning to the oven.
