Adapted from How to Roast Squash and Pumpkin Seeds
Ingredients
Seeds from a squash -- I used four Delicata, and had about two cups of seeds
Honey, to taste -- I used about 2 t. local wild honey
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. paprika
1/16 t. Saigon cinnamon
1/16 t. chipotle powder
Directions
Rinse and clean seeds of any remaining pulp. The method in the link looks easier and faster -- I'll try that next time.
Spread the seeds on a baking pan or parchment-lined pan. The parchment will help absorb some water without the seeds sticking to it later. (Some recipes suggest drying the seeds on paper towel, but I think they stick more. Stir a few times, every few hours, and you can leave them overnight, or put them in a warm (100˚F) oven for an hour or two, stirring occasionally until dry.
Once dry, put the seeds in a small mixing bowl and drizzle on the honey. Using a metal spoon, stir the seeds until they're evenly coated. Sprinkle with seasonings and stir again until evenly coated. (The link offers more flavor combinations.)
