Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter, softened, or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
3 cups pumpkin seeds, rinsed and thoroughly dried
2 tablespoons sugar
Directions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the rinsed and dried pumpkin seeds in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter and honey, stirring until well blended.
Pour the butter-honey mixture over the pumpkin seeds and toss thoroughly to coat all the seeds evenly.
In another small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin pie spice and sugar.
Sprinkle the spice-sugar mixture over the coated pumpkin seeds and toss again until all seeds are evenly coated with the spice blend.
Spread the seasoned pumpkin seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally halfway through, until the seeds are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a serving bowl. Store in an airtight container.
Comments
A straightforward snack that hits the Charlotte market well: pumpkin seeds are a standard item at all major chains, and the flavoring—butter, honey, pie spice, sugar—requires no hunting. The stated 38 minutes is optimistic; 50 minutes is more honest once you factor in seed drying time after rinsing and the actual roast. Cost per serving lands around $0.70–$0.85, reasonable for a home-roasted snack, though not cheap. This is a same-night dish that doesn't reheat gracefully, so commit to eating it fresh.
