Recipe: Seasoned Pumpkin Seeds

Fresh pumpkin seeds.

I shared this recipe last year and since it was a big hit I am re-posting it again this year.  Jake made some amazing roasted pumpkin seeds during our time carving the pumpkins.  Here is a super easy and great recipe for roasting pumpkins seeds:

  • 2 c pumpkin seeds
  • 2 T butter
  • Sprinkle Seasoned Salt (or substitute a 1/2 package ranch package mix)

Rinse the pumpkin seeds.  Saute pumpkin seeds in the butter for about 5 minutes (until they start to turn brown).  Sprinkle the Seasoned Salt or Ranch Mix on the  seeds.  Spread seeds into a shallow baking pan and baked at 250 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until crispy.  Stirring every 10 minutes.

We made half with the sprinkled Seasoned Salt and half with the Hidden Valley Ranch Dill Seasoning mix this year.  Delicious snacks for the whole family!
