Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
  1. Preheat oven to 375F

  2. Soak pumpkin seeds in a bowl of water and massage them a bit to help remove the pulp. The strings and pulp will sink to the bottom. Scoop out the seeds, discard the pulp (or compost) and pat dry (or place on a sheet pan and dry in the preheating oven.)

  3. Once dry, place on a parchment-lined sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil and maple syrup, spices and sesame seeds. Stir well.

  4. Place on the middle rack in the oven, and stir every 5 minutes. Watch like a hawk between minutes 10-15. You want them to toast, but not burn. Maple syrup needs to roast 12-14 minutes, in order to harden and get crackly when cooled. So aim for that. 🙂

  5. Remove from oven, fluff them a bit with the spatula, then let them cool completely, about 20 minutes. They should be beautifully golden and crispy.
