Pumpkin Seeds - Cinnamon

Pumpkin Seeds - Cinnamon

MAKES 1 CUP
Enjoy two quintessential flavors of fall — cinnamon and maple, with a touch of cardamom for warmth.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh pumpkin seeds (rinsed and dried (See Cook's Tip))
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a small bowl, toss pumpkin seeds with syrup.
  3. Sprinkle with cinnamon and cardamom. Toss to evenly distribute spices.
  4. Spread seeds in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Roast 10 to 15 minutes, until toasted to your liking.

Cook Tips

Remove as much moisture as possible from the seeds. Spread them on a clean, lint-free towel or a double layer of paper towels and pat dry. Or, place them in a double layer of paper grocery bags with a few paper towels, fold the top closed, and shake to dry.
