It is that time of year again!! PUMPKINS everywhere!! With all those pumpkins comes seeds. . .what do to with all those seeds? Well we roast them. I have done the same kind of roasting for years now, but on Sunday my friend came with seeds and hers had a Carmel color to them. So I asked her for her recipe. Now I am going to leave my recipe and her recipe and you can choose. No matter what kind of pumpkin seeds there are they all have one thing in common. . . YUMMY!!
My recipe:
Raw Pumpkin Seeds (as many as you have)
Water
Salt Sea Salt
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
Popcorn salt
Olive oil
Get all the gunky stuff off the seeds. Then soak the seeds in salt water for about an hour. Drain them in a colander and spread on sprayed jelly roll sheets. Sprinkle with Olive oil, Popcorn Salt, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder and put in a 300 degree oven for 1 hour. Stirring in 20 minute increments.
My Friends Recipe:
Ingredients:
Raw pumpkin seeds
Salt
Olive oil
Seasoned Salt
1 Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut open the pumpkin and use a strong metal spoon to scoop out the insides. Separate the seeds from the stringy core. Rinse the seeds.
2 In a small saucepan, add the seeds to water, about 2 cups of water to every half cup of seeds. Add a half tablespoon of salt for every cup of water. Bring to a boil. Let simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.
3 Spread about a tablespoon of olive oil over the bottom of a roasting pan. Spread the seeds out over the roasting pan, all in one layer. Sprinkle Seasoned Salt on the seeds and then Bake on the top rack until the seeds begin to brown, 10-20 minutes. When browned to your satisfaction, remove from the oven and let the pan cool on a rack. Let the seeds cool all the way down before eating.
