Steps:
- Preheat a grill for cooking over medium heat. Lightly oil the grill grates.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan and turn off the heat. Remove 1/4 cup of the melted butter and reserve. Whisk the maple syrup, cider vinegar, dry mustard, crushed red pepper, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper into the saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 4 minutes to reduce slightly. Remove the glaze from the heat and let cool. Set aside 1/3 cup of the glaze for drizzling at the end.
- Carefully halve the squashes from the stem to the bottom. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and discard. Place the squash halves flat-side down and slice crosswise into 1/2-inch scalloped half-moons. Place the slices in a very large bowl.
- Mix together the chili powder, coriander, cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the squash slices. Drizzle the reserved 1/4 cup of melted butter over the squash. Toss with your hands to make sure the slices are evenly coated.
- Place the squash slices on the grill and cover. Cook until dark grill marks appear, about 10 minutes. Flip the squash slices; cover and cook until the squash is just tender enough to be pierced easily with a paring knife, 7 to 8 minutes more.
- Brush the squash slices with the glaze and flip. Cook 1 minute, brush with glaze, flip and cook on the other side for another minute. Remove from the grill and arrange on a large platter. Drizzle with the reserved glaze. Sprinkle with the pepitas. Serve warm or at room temperature.

MAPLE-ROASTED ACORN SQUASH
When I was growing up, my mother served a lot of canned vegetables, but the one thing she always made from scratch was acorn squash, which she roasted with butter and maple syrup. When I revisited her old method, I found it was just as good as I remembered. The sweet squash filled with a big puddle of melted butter and sweet syrup is so irresistible!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the squash, cut sides up, on a sheet pan. Place ½ tablespoon butter and ½ tablespoon maple syrup in the cavity of each squash. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and sprinkle the squash with 3 teaspoons kosher salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the squash, until tender when pierced with a small knife.
- Place the squash on a serving platter. If the halves are too large for one serving, cut each piece in half through the stem. Drizzle lightly with extra maple syrup, sprinkle with sea salt, and serve hot.
- Cooks' Note
- Acorn squash is hard to cut. To halve a whole squash, plunge the blade of a large chef's knife into the side of the squash as far as it will go. Holding the handle of the knife, bang the squash (with the knife in it) on the board until the blade cuts all the way through.

MAPLE-ROASTED SQUASH WITH SAGE AND LIME FOR TWO
Slathered with a mildly spicy maple glaze, chunks of winter squash are roasted until velvety soft and browned at the edges, then brightened with lime and fresh sage just before serving. Unless you're using a squash variety with a particularly thick rind, you don't need to peel the squash before roasting. The skins of butternut or delicata roast up wonderfully crisp, adding texture to each bite.

MAPLE-GLAZED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SWEET POTATOES
You can dress up this side as a whole meal by piling these sweet, warmly spiced vegetables into a grain bowl, putting them over quinoa, couscous or white rice, and adding a lean protein - or even another wintry vegetable like brussels sprouts. You could also throw an egg on top, finishing it with cracked black pepper. Just don't be tempted to put everything on one sheet pan. Using two allows for more air flow, which creates those crispy edges, a contrast to the soft middles.

Steps:
- Set 2 oven racks in the middle and bottom of the oven, and heat oven to 425 degrees. Line 2 rimmed half-sheet pans with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and maple syrup, making sure they're all evenly coated. Sprinkle with the salt, cinnamon, pepper and orange zest, and, using your hands, toss the vegetables to coat them evenly in the oil and spices.
- Transfer to the baking sheets. Roast, switching the baking sheets on their racks and stirring the vegetables halfway through cooking, until the largest piece of squash is tender all the way through, about 30 minutes. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and turn on the broiler.
- Take turns placing each baking sheet under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to caramelize the vegetables. Serve hot, warm or cold tossed in salad.
