1. Heat oven to 425º. Looking for an easy clean up? Line the baking pan with foil or parchment paper.
2. Bring a small saucepan to simmer with the maple syrup and cayenne. Cook until reduced by a third, about 1 to 3 minutes. Melt butter with the coriander, salt, and pepper, then turn off the heat.
3. Arrange squash on the pan. Spoon the spiced maple syrup over pieces then turn to coat further.
4. Roast for about 15 minutes or until the pieces begin to soften. Turn over pieces and roast for another 10 to 20 minutes. Squash pieces should be glazed and tender.
5. To serve, drizzle lime and sage leaves over top.
