I found the basis for this recipe on All Recipes.com, posted there by Jani. I liked the idea but felt it needed some changes to fit my family's taste. It's a sweet, pumpkin pie spiced flavor with a hint of salt that we really enjoyed. I'm posting my version here for safe keeping because we all want to make this again next year.

Great snack and gift for Christmas. You could substitute any kind of nut for the pumpkin seeds, but I think the pumpkin seeds are a little more unusual and intersting.

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch grated nutmeg
1 large egg white
2 1/4 cups hulled pumpkin seeds

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, plump pumpkin seeds for the best flavor and texture.
