Kittencal, loved these. Have been making these for years with different recipe, I just threw it out! This was a great way to cook them, and much easier and better. The addition of olive oil was something I had never done and made all the difference. Thanx for great recipe addition.

I just made these last night, and really had fun! My DH and I carved our own pumpkins, his looked like a smart-alec with an evil grin..and mine looked like a chubby girl with a big nose and a big mouth~!(hey, you don't suppose that means something,do you?!) The seeds were delcious and crunchy. I used garlic salt instead of the regular. Thanks! Hazeleyes

This is an awesome recipe! I baked the seeds for 30 minutes on 2 greased cookie sheets. We did 2 small pumpkins and 2 medium. So had a lot of seeds! Family can't get enough of these seeds done this way. To anyone who is hesitant about this - DO IT - you won't do seeds anyother way!

Made these after I carved pumpkins a few days before Halloween and they turned out very well. I did add salt before and after baking the seeds, but other than that, I made no alterations. They were easy and tasty! Thank you!

I made these yesterday after helping my 2 year old carve her first jack-o-lantern . The directions were easy to follow and they definitely came out nice and crunchy. Too bad her small pumpkin only had about 1/2 cup seeds in it to begin with, because I've eaten almost all of them already and still want more. I'll gladly be saving this method to use again in the future. Thank you so much for posting!

I got 2 cups of seeds out of a medium pumpkin. I only used 2 cups of water to simmer them in (instead of the suggested 8 cups which seemed like far too much). Worked fine. They never got that brown even after 40 minutes, probably because I didn't dry them. Very delicious and crispy.
