Growing up, my Dad always separated out the pumpkin seeds from the guts that we collected in a bowl and toasted them as a snack. I was never a huge fan, until I found this honey/brown sugar recipe (adapted below)! I also made a small batch of honey seeds sprinkled with coarse ground sea salt-I'm obsessed with salty/sweet flavors, and the salt brought out the sweetness of the honey really nicely. I plan on sprinkling these babies over yogurt, ice cream, and salad (if I ate salad). These could also be mixed into my apple streusel muffins as a replacement for the chopped pecans!
- Rinse seeds in water while still wet and gooey
- Soak seeds overnight in salt water (salt measurement based on taste)
- Mix 4 tbsp of honey and seeds in bowl until they are completely coated
- Spread seeds on baking sheet (I recommend investing in a Silpat sheet for your pans) bake for 30 mins at 300 degrees
- After 30 mins sprinkle with brown sugar or coarse sea salt and bake for another 30 mins or until GBD
- Enjoy! If you have a variation or suggestion, I'd LOVE to hear it!!
