Ultra Addictive Sweet-n-Salty Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

​Do you love kettlecorn? I sure do. These sweet and salty pumpkin seeds are the iron-enriched, no-junk added treat that is the perfect replacement to popcorn.
 
Whether you use your leftover seeds from your pumpkins, or use prepackaged seeds these are the most delicious way to enjoy a sweet treat.
 
I used real seeds from the pumpkin. You must wash the pumpkin seeds after scooping out the “brains” of the pumpkin. Before you bake the seeds must be dried. I recommend letting them dry overnight. If not, you can use a clean dishtowel to dab them dry (it will take a while). Also, it is best to cook the seeds longer at a lower temperature. Higher temperatures can scorch the seeds.
