Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Wash and dry each squash; place on a cutting board. Slice off stem end and slice each squash in half, lengthwise, using a sharp knife. Remove seeds and membranes with a spoon. Slice across each squash half to create 1/2-inch pieces; transfer to a mixing bowl.

Step 3

Stir melted butter, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg together in a small bowl until well combined. Pour over squash pieces; stir to coat.

Step 4

Place squash pieces directly on the preheated grill grates and cook until grill marks appear and squash is fork-tender, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Move squash away from flare-ups. Return to the mixing bowl.

Step 5

Pour maple syrup over squash pieces and stir to coat. Transfer to serving dish; garnish with feta cheese crumbles, if desired.
