Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

One of my favorite things about fall is roasting pumpkin seeds.

As a child, we would carve our pumpkins for Halloween, and then my sweet mama would clean and dry out the seeds. We would then coat them with oil and salt, then bake them to a crispy perfection. They were so tasty and addicting, we’d finish them up in just a few days.

Pumpkin seeds are such a delicious and healthy snack to keep on hand. They are rich in omega fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and high in fiber (more so when you consume both the shell and inner kernel aka the pepita).

The recipe I provided is for 1 cup of seeds, so if you have 2 cups on hand, just double up on the other ingredients.

Happy snacking!
