Ingredients

  • 3 cups of raw pumpkin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of pepper
  • 2 teaspoons of olive oil

Instructions

  • Make sure your pumpkin seeds are cleaned, rinsed and dried completely.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).
  • Place the pumpkin seeds in a bowl and toss with the salt, pepper, and oil.
  • Place on a non-stick baking sheet and cook in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring the seeds every 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, cool, and enjoy. Make sure to put the cooked seeds in a sealed container so they stay fresh.

Notes

Needless to say, they go really well with a silky smooth pumpkin soup which means you could use an entire pumpkin in one meal. Another favorite way of enjoying these is to sprinkle them in a salad and or some stuffed sweet potatoes.
