Pumpkin Seeds

Ingredients:

3/4 cup pumpkin seeds, fresh and dried

1 Tablespoon Koroneiki Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Olive Oil Etcetera

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon cumin

1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper

14 teaspoon ground paprika

Directions:

Clean pumpkin seeds, removing pulp, rinsing and drying. Pat dry with paper towels, the drier the seeds are, the better they will crisp.

Stir together seeds and oil. Combine all of the seasonings and then sprinkle over seeds to coat.

Spread seeds on a single layer on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 300F for 35 - 40 minutes or until crisp.
