Instructions

Steps to make Spicy Cajun Roasted Pumpkin Seeds:

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Separate as many of the seeds from the pulp as you can and rinse them in a colander under cold water. Shake the seed as dry as possible, but do not pat dry them with paper towels as this may cause the seeds to stick.
2. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick baking spray. Spread the seeds in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for approximately 30 minutes in order to dry them out.
3. In a mixing bowl, toss the seeds with vegetable oil (may substitute olive oil or melted butter), pink salt (my preference, sea salt or plain salt will suffice), Tony Cachere's, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, paprika and worcestershire sauce. Place back onto backing sheet and return the seeds to the oven and bake until crisp and golden, approximately 20 more minutes.
4. Remove the seeds from the oven and allow to cool, as they should become more crisp as they begin to cool off.

In a medium bowl, mix together the pumpkin seeds, butter, garlic powder, salt and seasoned salt until the pumpkin seeds are evenly coated. Spread in an even layer on a cookie sheet. Spicy roasted pumpkin seeds are seasoned with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic, and cayenne. My kids get so excited every year when carving their Jack-O-Lanterns. They make sure to save as many of the seeds as they possibly can.
