Roasting Pumpkin Seeds

Roasting Pumpkin Seeds

Soon it will be time to carve pumpkins. Rather than tossing the seeds, try roasting them. Roasted pumpkin seeds have nutty flavor. 

How to Roast Pumpkin Seeds

1) Rinse pumpkin seeds in water after all strings have been removed.
2) Place seeds in a single layer on an oiled cookie sheet with sides. Stir to coat seeds. Another option is to spray the pan with non-stick vegetable spray.
3) Sprinkle lightly with salt and bake at 325 degrees until toasted, about 25 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes.
4) Let cool and store in an airtight container.
