Ingredients

• 2 cups pumpkin seeds (raw, rinsed, and dried)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
• 0.25 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt. Stir until well mixed to create the spice coating.

Step 3

Add the pumpkin seeds to the bowl and toss until all seeds are evenly coated with the spiced mixture.

Step 4

Spread the seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to ensure even roasting.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the seeds for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent burning and to promote even cooking.

Step 6

Once the seeds are golden brown and fragrant, remove them from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.

Step 7

Once cooled, serve the roasted pumpkin pie seeds immediately or store them in an airtight container for up to a week for a delicious, spiced snack.
