If you’re carving a Jack-O-Lantern this Halloween, don’t throw out those pumpkin seeds! They make an easy and deliciously crispy snack!
Simmering the seeds in salted water is an important step because it will season them from the inside out. Other options for seasoning are Cajun spice, curry blends, taco seasoning, or pumpkin spice.
Directions
- Scrape seeds off pumpkin and rinse under water to remove all stringy bits.
- Place seeds in medium saucepan and add water and salt.
- Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.
- Drain seeds and pat them dry.
- Place on baking sheet and toss with olive oil, paprika and bagel seasoning.
- Bake in a preheated 375°F oven until golden, tossing once, for 25-30 minutes, depending on the size of the seeds.
- Cool down completely and enjoy.
