Come say hi to Tiffany on Faces of Beauty today!
How sad is it that there’s a massive shortage of pumpkin? My heart has not been complete for some time now because of it. All I have to say is thank goodness for pumpkin seeds, butter, and sugar.
But really, thank goodness.
SUGAR ‘N’ SPICE PUMPKIN SEEDS
- 2 cups pumpkin seeds (I used 1 cup each of pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds)
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 2 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp pumpkin spice
- pinch of salt
Preheat the oven to 275. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with nonstick spray. Slowly melt the butter in a sauce pan over extremely low heat, and while you’re waiting for the butter to melt, assemble the rest of the ingredients.
You will die.
Of happiness that is.
Not that I know this from experience.
Promise!
I suppose this will just have to remedy my pumpkin craving until I can dive headfirst into a can of pumpkin.
Happy Friday everyone!
Can’t wait to try this!
Love this recipe! I’m a pumpkin seed fanatic lately–I’ve been toasting them and throwing them in my lunch salads. While I’ve experimented with several savory seasonings, I’ve actually never tried a sweet one. Can’t wait to try your recipe this week!
While the recipe seems great, what’s with the knock-off Pioneer Woman style of writing? I don’t understand why every blogger has to write like this!
Hi Amy!
I’m sorry you feel that way, but if we were talking face-to-face you would see that the way I write is the way that I speak to friends conversationally. It’s not intended to be a knock-off of someone else, and I put a lot of time, thought, and attention into my blog posts. I hope that you find a blogger that expresses themselves in a way that you appreciate, but I know that I am writing exactly the way that I love. Thanks for stopping by though!
Omg those pumkin seeds look delicious! Sweet and healthy, perfect!! I cannot find any pumpkin in any grocery store and its making me so upsettt!
Pumpkin seeds – such a great way to use what might become a waste product, and, as a bonus, they’re so good for you! In east Africa, pumpkin seeds and yams are used in a lot of fertility dishes….just sayin’ 🙂
Have a great weekend!
I heart pumpkin seeds!!! I’ve always made them salty… I must make these!
I LOVE roasted pumpkin seeds. The simplest seasonings makes them taste heavenly. 🙂
I was oblivious to the pumpkin shortage until last week when I casually went to the store to find some canned pumpkin. After stopping at 5 stores (no lie) someone finally told me about the shortage. And I wanted to cry right there… I had been so set on making pumpkin muffins! Thank you for the pumpkin seed recipe. Looks so good!
Ok! I will be making this. It would be a good little snack on the coffee table for thankgiving while people are chatting:) Just a thought.
you reminded me that i have been wanting to season up some pumpkin seeds! i love them on salads or in yogurt.
This sounds ah-mazing!!! And there is a pumpkin shortage???!!! Unacceptable!
What a great idea. I might have to try this since I’m going through pumpkin withdrawal too. I miss my Libbys!
Oh I love pumpkin seeds! They were my favorite part of carving pumpkins for Halloween. Usually we just salt them, but I’ll have to try this sweeter variety!
I am sincerely upset about this pumpkin shortage. I have yet to find Libbys anywhere!?!?! 🙁
These seeds are such a great idea. I think this would also be fantastic on roasted chic peas.
YUM!
You are my hero.
Yum. I always have lots of pumpkin and squash seeds that I save and roast. Love this idea – perfect for gatherings too.
youre right, this would be fabulous on yogurt!! id also love to put this mix ontop of a loaf or some fresh baked muffins!! uno what, this would make a fantastic cookie recipe too 😀
xoxo
Wow, these look great! And so easy! Can’t wait to try it.
Oooh these sound good! I tried squash seeds the other day (from an acorn squash) for the first time and they were ridiculously good – all this time, I can’t believe I’ve been throwing them out with the other squash guts!! Definitely going to try your recipe soon! 🙂
“This will create the best smell you’ve ever smelled.”— i was thinking that when i was reading the post! and then you wrote it! 🙂 YUM!
must.make.soon.
Lovely!
And just in time for fall.
Will try this weekend and report back.

Gasp! That’s not a metal spatula in a non-stick pan is it?! Oh please tell me it’s not. The obsessive-compulsive in me is freaking out, lol.
I had no idea there was a pumpkin shortage! I want to make myself some pumpkin bread… guess I’d better go check my store first. Want me to mail you some if I find it? Haha, here’s hoping!
well, the handle is metal but the spatula part is silicon…don’t worry! and yes, feel free to mail me pumpkin if you find some!
What a great idea, I love pumpkin seeds!
There is nothing that says “autumn is here” like roasted pumpkin seeds!
Mmm…nothing says autumn like the smell of roasted pumpkin seeds!!
Pumpkin goodness! I’m now making a quick stop for a pumpkin spice latte as a result of the cravings I’m experiencing after reading this post!
I love roasted pumpkin seeds, and your recipe for spicing them up looks fantastic! What a great idea!
Its pumpkin seed time!
oh. my. word!
This looks utterly amazing, thanks so much for sharing! I will be making these ASAP!
YUM!
awww… this reminds me of when I used to eat pumpkin seeds as a kid at my grandmother’s! Granted they were just baked over the fireplace and this recipe looks much tastier!
I love roasted pumpkin seeds!
I recently found some Libby’s pumpkin and I’m considering going back to get more, only because the store hasn’t had ANY for weeks! How sad, this is the best time of year to have pumpkin!
Oh wow! What a simple great recipe for pumpkin seeds. I never know what to do with them. I have a feeling this is going to become a classic in our house;)
Thank you!
