If you love a touch of sweetness then these roasted pumpkin seeds are calling your name.  These are my favorite pumpkin seeds and a treat I look forward to every fall after my children and I carve pumpkins.

Ingredients:

2 cups pumpkin seeds

¼ cup dark brown sugar

2 tablespoons butter melted

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Directions:

1. Separate the pumpkin seeds from the pumpkin flesh and rinse well in a colander.  Line a large baking sheet with paper towels and spread seeds out in an even layer to dry.  Allow seeds to dry for several hours.
2. Preheat oven to 300 degrees line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Spread seeds out in an even layer.  Roast for 25-30 minutes until seeds are beginning to dry out.
4. Mix brown sugar, pumpkin spice, and melted butter in a medium bowl.  Add the pumpkin seeds and mix well to coat.
5. Spread the pumpkin seeds back out in an even layer.  Use a spatula to scrape all of the butter and sugar mixture out with the seeds.
6. Roast for 25-30 more minutes.
7. Cool before serving.  Then store in an air-tight container.
