It is that time again. Toasted pumpkin seeds recipe time!
My sister-in-law shared this recipe with me a few years back. It was from her Church. Each year the Church hands it out right before Halloween. Everyone in the congregation calls it “The Best Pumpkin Seeds Recipe Ever”. It’s the same recipe I post lasted year. I suppose what makes this recipe work comes from the salty brining.
Let’s get to work.
First carve your pumpkins and get those seeds out of that stringy matter.
Rinse the pulp off the seeds. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
Since each year our pumpkins deliver different quantities of seeds, so adjust your amounts accordingly.
