One of my favorite things about carving pumpkins is that when you are done, you get to make roasted pumpkin seeds! I love pumpkin seeds, and making them is so easy. While I love roasting the seeds with just a bit of salt, this year I tried something different. I’m sharing this super simple brown sugar cinnamon pumpkin seeds recipe with you today!

TIPS FOR PUMPKIN SEEDS
This recipe combines sweet and salty flavors, which is always a win in my book. I like to eat pumpkin seeds by the handful, but you could also use them to top granola, oatmeal, or even salads!Here are a couple of tips to make sure your pumpkin seeds turn out just how you want them to:
- Make sure that the seeds are completely and evenly coated with the sugar and butter mixture. Large clumps of sugar can prevent the seeds from getting nice and crisp.
- Spread the seeds out on the baking sheet in an even layer so they roast evenly without burning.
- Give the seeds a flip with a spatula midway through the roast time for extra crispiness.
- Keep the seeds stored in a zipper bag or airtight container to keep them fresh.
