Cajun Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Ingredients
  • 1 cup raw whole pumpkin seeds, washed and dried
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 3/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, or to taste
  • salt to taste
  • 2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a medium-high temperature of 300 degrees Fahrenheit (or equivalently, 150 degrees Celsius).
2
In a bowl, combine pumpkin seeds with paprika, Cajun seasoning, and salt to create a uniform coating.
3
Mix the Worcestershire sauce with melted butter in a small bowl, then pour this mixture over the pumpkin seeds.
4
Mix everything together until well combined.
5
Arrange the coated pumpkin seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they don't overlap.
6
Roast the seeds in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to an hour, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
7
Every 15-20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and gently stir or turn the seeds to ensure even roasting.
