Cinnamon & Brown Sugar Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

We are all snackers in my house. Whether it be something sweet or savory, we all love to grab a handful of something at some point throughout the day. I like to keep different seeds, and nuts around, but it isn’t too often I purchase Pumpkin Seeds. There isn’t much variety in stores, and I just don’t like all of that salt they are usually packaged in.

That is why I LOVE when Pumpkin season comes along, we often buy several Pumpkins for decoration, and I always scrape out, and keep the seeds to make us a yummy snack!

Pumpkin Seeds can not only be made to taste really good, they are also really good for you! They pack a great deal of Protein, and are filled with different nutrients, and minerals our bodies need!

Ingredients

Scale

Seeds from a Pumpkin
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
2 tablespoons Brown Sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 300*
Wash seeds throughly, making sure to get all of the orange Pumpkin stuff off
Boil your seeds in Water for about 5 minutes in a small pot on the stove, drain & set aside to cool a bit. (Boiling makes them more easy to digest, and helps them crisp better)

Make sure all of your seeds are coated well
Spread your seeds in a single layer on a Baking Sheet
Bake for about 30 minutes or until they are golden brown & crispy

Notes

If you find your Pumpkin Seeds are not sweet enough or flavored quite enough to your liking after baking, simply toss them around in a bowl with more Brown Sugar & Cinnamon mix again before serving.
