Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.
Coat a 9 X 13" baking dish with cooking spray. Cut squash in half and scoop out seeds. Place squash, cut side down, in prepared baking dish; add 1/2 cup water; bake 15 minutes.
In large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add apples, raisins, and walnuts; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in juice, preserves and Apple Bake Seasoning; cook for 2 minutes.
Drain any remaining water from bulgur. Remove skillet from heat and stir in bulgur. Remove baking dish from oven; flip squash so that cut sides are up. Divide bulgur mixture into squash cavities.
Pour remaining 1 cup water into bottom of baking dish; cover with foil; bake for 50 to 75 minutes, until squash is fork tender. Uncover and bake 5 minutes longer.
