Bakes Acorn Squash with Maple Syrup

2 acorn squash, cut into thirds
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 pinch cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg, freshly grated

Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Split the squash into thirds and remove the seeds.
Cut a slice off the bottom of each piece so that it sits evenly, skin-side down, in a 9 x 13-inch glass baking dish.
In the hollow of each piece, place 1 teaspoon unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg to taste. Bake in the heated oven until fork tender, about 45 minutes.
