Loading ...Salted Flavored Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
- by Judi ~ October 18, 2008
One of my favorite Halloween-time snacks has always been toasted pumpkin seeds.
While the kids are scooping out the pumpkin, have them place the seeds into a large collander. This “duty” always falls to me.. the kids think it sounds fun, but a few minutes into it, I get to finish the chore… fun, fun!
Clean off most of the pumpkin pulp. Use your own judgement on this one. Personally, I love some of the pumpkin pulp baked with the seeds – yummy!
Rinse the seeds until mostly cleaned off.
Spread seeds on paper towels to dry them.
Use about 3 TBSP of melted butter drizzled over seeds and sprinkle with salt.
Bake in oven at 300 degrees for about 45 minutes.
Other spices and flavors to use:
2 tsp Worcesteshire sauce
1/8 tsp garlic powder
A packet of ranch dressing powder
cayenne powder
cheese powder
cinnamon
The possiblities are endless!

My wife makes some really good roasted pumpkin seeds, but yours sound quite amazing. I will have to show her this recipe as soon as she gets up for the morning.
Yum! I’d love to post a version of this on my website, with a link back to you of course :-) Okay with you?
@Heidi: Of course!
