Categories     Quick & Easy     Seed

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
pinch of ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste after baking
3/4 teaspoon dried chili flakes
1 large egg white
plus generous pinches of each of these spices to sprinkle over the top of the nuts just before they go in the oven.

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a cookie sheet and set aside. Mix together salt, sugar and spices. Set aside. Whip egg white in a medium bowl until loose and frothy. Add the raw nuts and toss to coat. Add the mixed spices. Toss to coat as evenly as possible. Spread seasoned nuts in a single layer across the greased cookie sheet. Sprinkle nuts with a bit more seasoning. A generous pinch of each. You can totally eyeball it. Place nuts in the oven and let bake for 7 minutes. Remove nuts from the oven to toss and flip. Return to the oven for another five minutes. Toss and flip them again and then bake for another 3 minutes. Nuts should be nicely browned. Carefully taste the nuts and add more salt to taste. Cool nuts completely before serving. Store in an airtight container for a week.

Not my favorite. I think I'll stick to my old roasted pumpkin recipe.

Overall, this dish was okay. I think it could be improved with some additional spices and a shorter roasting time for the pumpkin.

The pumpkin was a bit too tough for my liking. I think I'll try roasting it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more spices.

Easy and delicious! I used butternut squash instead of pumpkin and it worked perfectly. The roasted vegetables were so flavorful and the sunflower seeds added a nice crunch. Will definitely make this again!
