Ingredients

2 cups  
pumpkin seeds (1 medium pumpkin)
4 cups  
water
 
Olive Oil cooking spray
1/2 tsp  
salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F.
  2. In a medium pot, bring water to a boil.
  3. Add seeds, reduce heat and boil gently for 10 minutes.
  4. Drain well then transfer to a paper towel-lined sheet tray and pat dry.
  5. Transfer seeds to a medium bowl, spirtz with cooking spray, sprinkle with salt and spread out in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  6. Roast seeds, stirring every 10 minutes or so, until just crisp and golden brown, about 1 hour total.
  7. Set aside to let cool completely then shell or eat whole. (They will become crispier as they cool.)
