Separate the seeds from pumpkin flesh and strings. Wash them well and spread them on paper towels to dry. Next spread seeds evenly over a cookie sheet. Heat them in a 375-degree oven for 20-30 minutes. raise the oven temperature to 400. Brown the seeds for five to 10 minutes until golden brown. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot or cold.

Start with plump dry pumpkin seeds. Make a heavy brine by dissolving salt in water and dip the seeds quickly into the brine. Place them evenly on a cookie sheet and bake in the oven until they turn a golden light brown. enjoy!

Pumpkin seeds
Cooking spray, olive oil, or butter
Optional: Salt, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, or other seasoning of choice
PREPARATION:
Rinse pumpkin seeds. Use your fingers to remove all the pulp. Drain pumpkin seeds and discard pulp. Spread out on paper towels on a cookie sheet to dry overnight.

Preheat oven to 250 F. Line a baking sheet with non-stick foil.

Toss pumpkin seeds in olive oil, butter, or spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, or your choice of seasonings. Toss to coat.

Bake about 1 hour, tossing every 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown.

Cool pumpkin seeds before eating. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 months or refrigerate up to 1 year.

If you like your toasted pumpkin seeds extra-salty, soak overnight in a solution of 1/4 cup salt to 2 cups of water. Dry an additional day, then proceed as above.

If you are picking them out of a pumkin, make sure all the guts are cleaned off of them. Soak them in salt water overnight. Drain and dry them, then lay them out on a single layer on a cookie sheet and roast them in the over - i think on about 250 degrees, but watch them, you may need to turn it up to about 350. You want them to be golden brown, but not burnt. You might want to turn them over part way through.

Sprinkle a little more salt on them and enjoy! They are so yummy and they will last for weeks.

Good luck!!

Roast them in the oven 325 degrees for a half hour. Salt lightly, cool, and munch away.

My mom used to wash the seeds and put them on a baking pan then sprinkle ranch dressing mix on them and bake them for 15 minutes. Really good!
