Cut open the pumpkin. Remove the seeds and wash thoroughly in water. Dry the seeds with paper towels. Spread them out on a baking sheet. You may want to add a little salt, or other desired seasonings. Bake until they get to desired doneness.

I think you might be wanting pepitas, the seeds inside the hull.
Heres how:
Hulling the seeds can be a lot of work. But one method some people swear by involves breaking up the seeds with a rolling pin or hammer, then dropping them in a pail of water. Stir vigorously to separate the seeds from the hulls, and the seeds will sink to the bottom, while the shells float.
If you'd like to toast the hulled seeds, heat a skillet over medium-low heat and add the seeds. They will begin to pop, at which point, you should begin stirring them for 4 to 5 minutes, until all are toasted and have popped. Salt them and enjoy them as a snack or wrap them tightly and freeze until ready to use. They will stay fresh in the freezer for at least 6 months.

Recipe and Directions to Roast Pumpkin Seeds
Step 1 - Clean the seeds
When you are carving your pumpkin, separate the seeds from the pumpkin flesh and strings. Wash them well (usually putting then in a big bowl of water and rubbing them between your hands is a fast way to clean them) and spread them on paper towels to dry.
It is also time to start preheating the oven. Turn it on and set it to 325 F (190 C, for those in Europe)
Step 2 - Spread the seeds on a cookie sheet and season them
Spread the seeds evenly over a cookie sheet and lightly baste the seeds with melted butter, margarine, or vegetable oil. There are many variations. Here are the most popular, in order or popularity:
Savory: 4 tablespoons melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt and 2 teaspoons Worchestershire sauce
Lemony: 4 tablespoons melted butter, 1 teaspoon 'Mrs. Dash" or lemon pepper
Halloweeny: 4 tablespoons melted butter, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice.
Spicy: 4 tablespoons melted butter, 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Natural: 1 teaspoon sea salt or other salt, 4 tablespoons melted butter,
Step 3 - Roast the seeds
Heat them in a 325-degree oven for 30-40 minutes until golden brown. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot or cold.
For milder flavor, simmer the cleaned seeds for about an hour in salted water and fry in deep oil. Or mix a tablespoon of oil or margarine to each cup of nuts and roast them at 250 degrees for 30-40 minutes until they're golden. Sprinkle them with salt.

Well the pumpkin has already made the seeds, but I presume you men roasting the seeds?
I spread them out on a cookie sheet after cleaning them well. Brush melted butter over them and sprinkle them with salt and garlic, OR seasoning salt.. Roast them for about an hour at 300, or until they get crunchy and enjoy!

Put the seeds in a pan and add enough water to cover. Boil for a couple minutes, drain well and dry with paper towel. Mix with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and spread on cookie sheet. Bake 350 for five to ten minutes or until they are the way you like them.
