Sweet Pumpkin Seeds with a bit of Spice


Today we carved pumpkins and since Sky has been sooooo wanting to roast seeds I thought we'd try out some new recipes. This one is from Martha and so of course it's yummy.


Ingredients
1 cup roasted seeds (roast on a parchment paper lined baking sheet in a 250 F oven for 30 minutes to an hour, just until they are dry - stir every once and awhile)
5 Tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
a pinch of cayenne pepper, one recipe said red pepper, I used paprika because that was all I had
1 1/2 Tbsp. peanut oil

Mix 3 Tbsp. sugar and all the other dry ingredients in a bowl.

In a large saucepan heat oil over high heat, add 2 Tbsp. sugar and seeds, stir until the sugar melts and it all starts to caramelize (45-60 seconds).

Stir seeds into dry mix.

Enjoy
