I substituted more cinnamon & ginger for the cumin and used canola oil. These are yummy!

AWESOME! The best recipe for pumpkin seeds I ever had. We made this for our annual Trick or Treating party and it was a huge hit with adults and kids! I didn't have peanut oil so we used olive oil and they were fantastic...going to buy more pumpkins just to make more!

Mmmmmm, Pumpkin seeds.... This is a great recipie - I used 4 cups sedds and tripled the rest of the ingredients. We are having people over for a Halloween party tomorrow and I had planned on putting these out with pre-dinner cocktails/champange - but they are too yummy and we are selfishly keeping them for ourselves!
