Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  2. 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.
  3. 3 Stir melted butter, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg together in a small bowl until well combined. Pour over squash pieces; stir to coat.
  4. 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.
  5. 5 Pour maple syrup over squash pieces and stir to coat. Transfer to serving dish; garnish with feta cheese crumbles, if desired.
