Ingredients

  • 1 large pumpkin (or about 2 cups of seeds)
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoon salt
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1-2 teaspoon seasoned salt

Instructions

  • Cut the top off of the pumpkin.
  • Use the flat edge of a sturdy spoon or spatula to scrape the pumpkin seeds away from the pumpkin flesh.
  • Scoop out the pumpkin seeds and try to leave behind as much of the pulp as possible.
  • Spoon the pumpkin seeds in a large colander and rinse them under running water. Use your fingers to separate the pulp from the seeds and discard.
  • Pour the clean pumpkin seeds into a large stockpot. Add water and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Drain well.
  • Pour the pumpkin seeds into a bowl. Add olive oil and seasoned salt. Stir to coat.
  • Spread the pumpkin seeds out in a large rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 375˚F for 25-30 minutes, stirring and turning every 5 minutes, until golden and crunchy.
  • Store in an airtight container.
