Roasted Pumpkin Seeds


I love pumpkin seeds.  They have to be one of my favorite snacks.  Plus, they are very simple to make.

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Pumpkin Seeds
Sea Salt

Preheat oven to 325.  Rinse pumpkin seeds of the stringy part of pumpkin.  Place seeds on cookie sheet sprayed with Pam.  Sprinkle pumpkin seeds with sea salt.  Bake in oven until seeds are dry, stirring every 20 minutes.  Seeds are done when no longer moist.  Hint:  If you start to hear snapping, they are done.

Variations are endless.  One of our favorites in this house is
Chicken Wing Pumpkin Seeds

1 1/2 cups rinsed pumpkin seeds
1 tsp Powdered Ranch Dressing Mix
1-2 T Chicken Wing Sauce

Rinse pumpkin seeds.  In medium bowl, combine Ranch Dressing Mix and Wing Sauce.  Coat pumpkin seeds and turn onto cookie sheet.  Bake in 325 oven until no longer moist (approximately 40 minutes), stirring every 20 minutes.

~ Baking times are approximated, depending on amount of pumpkin seeds being roasted, and amount of liquid on pumpkin seeds.
