Roasted pumpkin seeds are a yummy snack on their own, with drinks, or sprinkled onto other meals like soup or salad. Instead of throwing them away after emptying a pumpkin for carving, turn them into a tasty treat. I add a bit of spice but you could experiment according to your own taste.
1
First of all, preheat your oven to around 200 degrees Celsius. Rinse the pumpkin seeds and remove any gooey, stringy bits of pumpkin flesh. Place in a roasting tin or tray.
2
Add a drizzle of olive oil.
3
Then add salt, pepper and spices and stir to coat. Place in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.
4
When golden and crispy remove from the oven and serve.
