This is one of the many recipes that Aaron and I want to share with you. We are overjoyed for you to come with us on our journey as we put together different concoctions and laugh together (all while hoping to not burn our apartment down). Please enjoy these recipes as much as we have. We welcome you to a small, but intentional, part of our lives.
What You’ll Need
- A Pumpkin
- A large knife
- A colander
- Olive Oil
- Sea Salt
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
- Cooking Spray
How We Did It
- Preheat your oven to 300 degrees (F).
- Cut and remove the top of your pumpkin.
- Remove pumpkin seeds from the pumpkin and clean any “guts” off of them.
- Put them in a colander and wash them.
- After the seeds are washed off (free of any extra “guts”) let the seeds dry for approximately 20 minutes. Pat them dry to help them along.
- While the seeds are drying, place a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet and spray with cooking oil.
- Once the seeds are dry, drizzle 1/4 tablespoon of olive oil and sea salt on top of them and mix well.
- Lay the seeds on the parchment paper in a single layer.
- Bake for approximately 15–20 minutes (or until desired doneness), flipping halfway through.
- Remove from oven, let them cool a bit, and enjoy!
A Final Note
Aaron and I had so much fun cooking this recipe together. We loved putting our own spin on it but we do need to give credit where it is due. Find the original recipe here:
