Three Roasted Pumpkin Seed Recipes! I really love roasted pumpkin seeds but after decades of eating them with oil and salt, I’m looking to mix things up a bit. Check out these delish looking recipes for a new twist on pumpkin seeds.
NOTE: I’ve included the ingredients and a link to the recipe and preparation instructions. Directions for roasting pumpkin seeds vary wildly across the internet from temperature (I’ve seen everything from 250 – 350) and cooking time (anywhere from 7 minutes to an hour).
I certainly don’t want to be the culprit for undercooked, burned or soggy seeds, so I recommend clicking on the links below or just googling roasted pumpkin seeds.
