Ingredients
- 2 cups Raw pumpkin seeds
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 0.125 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat.
Step 2
Rinse the raw pumpkin seeds under cold water to remove any pulp or residue, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt. Stir to create a smooth spiced mixture.
Step 4
Add the dried pumpkin seeds into the bowl and toss thoroughly to coat them evenly with the sugar and spice mixture.
Step 5
Spread the coated pumpkin seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Bake the seeds in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure they roast evenly. Keep a close eye during the last few minutes to prevent burning.
Step 7
Once the seeds are golden brown and aromatic, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet.
Step 8
Transfer the cooled pumpkin seeds to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately as a crispy treat!
