Ingredients
- Pumpkin
- Salt
- Grapeseed Oill
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300 F.
- Carefully cut a lid on the top of your pumpkin. If you are carving this pumpkin, then make a notch in the cutout so you can easily tell how the top goes back onto the pumpkin.
- With a knife, cut off the pumpkin seeds and pulp off of the lid.
- Using a sturdy spoon, scoop out the rest of the pumpkin seeds in the pumpkin. Scrape the sides of the pumpkin to clean it out nicely.
- Separate as much of the large chunks of pulp from the seeds as possible.
- Put the seeds in a large bowl, then fill with water. The leftover pulp should sink, while the seeds float. If pulp is sticking to the seeds, separate them using your fingers.
- Gently scoop the floating seeds off the top, and let them drain in a colander.
- Oil a baking pan, and place the seeds in a single layer.
- Bake at 300 F for 30 minutes to dry them out.
- Add a little oil to the seeds, and toss them so that the seeds are coated.
- Lightly sprinkle on salt, then put them back in the oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- If after 20 minutes, they are not golden, you can also broil them for a minute or so to add color.
- Enjoy!
