Quick n' Easy Pumpkin Seeds

Happy Monday to you all!

With Halloween just around the corner it's the perfect time to be doing all things fall before November comes along!

Last week I took out my pumpkins, carved them, ate Pillsbury ready-made Halloween cookies, watched Hocus Pocus, made my Halloween costume, so I guess you could say I've been pretty fall-ish.

I could've made my own cookies but...
These are way too good

Also for the record, my pumpkin carving skills could have been better...

Expectation...
...Reality
















But anyway!

For all of you carving pumpkins this week, I have created this recipe for you to also make something yummy. Here is my recipe for Quick n' Easy Pumpkin Seeds!


Quick n' Easy Pumpkin Seeds

I love using different types of spices and flavors to combine and really create something delicious in every bite. If you want to use less or more of some of these spices, be my guest! Cooking is all about trying new things and adjusting them to your preference! 

Ingredients: Per 1 Cup of Pumpkin Seeds

- 1 and 1/2 Teaspoons of Olive Oil

- 1/2 Teaspoon of Garlic Powder

- 1/2 Teaspoon of Cayenne Red Pepper

- 1/4 Teaspoon of Sea Salt

- 1/4 Teaspoon of Paprika 

- Some Black Pepper

Step 1

Preheat Oven to 325 degrees F.

Place seeds in a bowl.

Mix together all ingredients, adding spices, more or less, as desired. 


Step 2

Place tin foil on a baking tray, spread out seeds on tray.

Bake in total for about 30 minutes. Every 5-7 minutes flip and stir your seeds on tray

At the end of the 30 minutes, test out a few seeds to make sure they are cooked enough.

Remove and enjoy!!



These had the perfect mixture of spices and were baked to add some crunch to every bite! Very delicious, and I made my more spicy for preference :)
