These are a very tasty treat for snacking or parties! Ingredients:
1 cup raw cleaned whole pumpkin seeds |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon chili powder |
1 teaspoon white sugar |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon white sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). 2. Place the pumpkin seeds on a cookie sheet, and spread them out into a single layer. Roast until brown and crisp, about 45 minutes. Set the seeds aside in a large bowl. 3. Place the cinnamon, chili powder, and 1 teaspoon of sugar in a bowl, and set aside. 4. Place olive oil and 1 tablespoon of sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, and heat and stir with a wooden spoon until the sugar turns a light golden brown color. Watch it carefully to avoid burning. 5. Pour the caramelized sugar mixture over the roasted pumpkin seeds, and stir to coat. Pour the cinnamon-chili powder mixture over the seeds, and toss to coat the seeds with the spices. |
