f you haven’t given pumpkin seeds a try, this is your year!!! They are so nutritious and delicious!! The perfect snack the entire family can get involved with. I like my pumpkin seeds both savory and sweet. You can find my two recipes below! Both are great for kids & adults :) 

PUMPKIN SEEDS

INGREDIENTS (this mixture Is per one cup of dried pumpkin seeds) 

Savory
1 tbsp oil
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp paprika
⅛ tsp pepper

Sweet
1 tbsp butter
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp brown sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS:
Use a hand mixer to get the guts and seeds from the pumpkin.  To separate the seeds from the guts- fill a bowl with water, density lesson…seeds float to top and guts sink to the bottom. Rotten seeds will also sink. 

Boil the seeds for 10 minutes with about 1 tablespoon of salt.  Boiling cooks the inside of the seeds so you don’t end up with a crispy outside and undercooked inside.

To dry the seeds, towel dry if in a hurry and let sit for at least one hour or overnight OR I prefer to dry them in a 170° oven, dry seeds on a cookie sheet for 2 hours. 
 
After drying, toss with oil or butter on the baking sheet and then toss with the spice mixture of your choice and roast at 350-400° for 15-20 minutes (depending on size of pumpkin seeds) until golden brown and crispy. They are ready when the give off a nutty aroma and they turn golden brown. #pumpkinseeds
