Pumpkin Jack Flash - Baked Pumpkin Seeds

I often snack on pumpkin seeds, so I wanted to learn how to prepare fresh pumpkin seeds. The past weekend was the perfect weekend for experimentation, as I had just bought two different kinds of winter squash. I suppose there are other ways to prepare fresh pumpkin seeds but I decided to bake them, and the result was very nice.




PUMPKIN JACK FLASH

fresh pumpkin seeds
sunflower seed oil
sea salt

1. Rinse the pumplin seeds until they are clean, and pat them dry between two sheets of kitchen roll.

2. Sprinkle a little bit of sunflower seed oil on baking paper.

3. Put the pumpkin seeds on the baking paper and sprinkle some sea salt on them.

4. Toss the pumpkin seeds using a spatula to make sure that they all get a bit of oil on them. Then use the spatula to spread the pumpkin seeds evenly on the baking paper.

5. Bake the pumpkin seeds in 175 degrees for about 15 minutes, turning them once.

6. Pat the baked pumpkin seeds between two sheets of kitchen roll to remove excess oil.

7. Enjoy your salty snack!
