How to Prepare Pumpkin Seeds
You can buy pumpkin seeds, but it's fun and easy to make them at home.
1) Remove the seeds from the pumpkin's inner cavity and wipe them off with a paper towel if needed to remove excess pulp that may have stuck to them.
2) Spread them out evenly on a paper bag and let them dry out overnight.
3) Place them in a single layer on a cookie sheet and light roast them in a 160-170°F (about 75°C) oven for 15-20 minutes.
By roasting them for a short time at a low temperature you can help to preserve their healthy oils.
Tip:
Remember to save those pumpkin seeds after you scoop them out this Halloween!
