My husband asked if I could make a sweet pumpkin seed batch from all the pumpkin seeds we got from carving jack-o'-lanterns.

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups raw whole pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons butter, melted
½ cup white sugar, divided
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, divided

Steps:

  • Remove all the pulp and strings from the pumpkin seeds, then wash and thoroughly dry the seeds.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the melted butter in a bowl, toss the seeds in the butter to coat, and pour them onto the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon over the seeds, stir the seeds around to mix the coating, and spread them into a single layer. Bake the seeds in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
  • Remove the seeds from the oven, and sprinkle them with another coating of 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon, mixing the seeds together and spreading them out as before. Bake 5 more minutes. Repeat the coating and baking step one more time, and bake the seeds for 5 more minutes.
  • Sprinkle the seeds with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar, mix, and bake the sugar coating onto the seeds, about 10 more minutes. Let the seeds cool on the baking sheet before eating.
