Roasted Pumpkin Seeds with Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper

Every year when we carve pumpkins with the kids we have a healthy supply of pumpkin seeds.  This year I decided to experiment with various flavors.

First -- Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper
Wash pumpkin seeds well to remove pumpkin pulp.
Pat them dry and place in a bowl  -- about 2 cups.
Add:
2 tsp Olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
Place a lid on the bowl and shake to mix well.

Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for one hour at 250 degrees, stirring every 15 minutes.

Second -- Sweet and Spicy
Add:
2 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake for one hour at 250 degrees, stirring every 15 minutes.

Cool and place in airtight container.
