Carving pumpkins may get all the Halloween glory, but it's roasting the oh-so-addictive seeds inside that's become our favorite treat for any time of year. Pumpkin seeds, also called Pepitas, are an amazing snack that you can roast and enjoy in just a few simple steps. You can season your seeds any way you like, opting for a savory flavor profile-think cumin and coriander-or a sweet combination, like cinnamon and ginger. No matter how you season them, roasted pumpkin seeds serve as the perfect blank canvas for the flavors of your choice.

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 small (6 lb) fresh-well-ripened pumpkin
Nonstick cooking spray
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Cut pumpkin in half. Remove the membrane and seeds. Remove most of the pulp from the seeds (leave some pulp on - it adds to the flavor; for the same reason, do not rinse the seeds).
  • Spread seeds in a shallow, jelly roll pan with sides, 15x10x 1 1/2 inches. Spray seeds with cooking spray; sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until browned; cool.
