Notes
- Make sure to stir the pumpkin seeds occasionally while they bake. I typically stir them 2-3 times during the 45 minute baking time. You can stir them more often if you notice any seeds getting too dark.
- When you select a pumpkin, tap on the pumpkin. Choose a pumpkin that has a hollow sound and you will get plenty of seeds!
- Watch the color of the seeds as they roast. You want them to be golden brown so they are crispy and delicious.
