Roasted Snack Jack Seeds

We love these and hope to grow some Snack Jack Pumpkins this upcoming season!
Snack Jacks (Cucurbita pepo) are little pumpkins that produce
small hulless seeds that are awesome for roasting and eating!

The seeds on the left are the hulless Snack Jack seeds and the
seeds on the right are from a regular Jack-o-lantern pumpkin.

Ingredients:
2 cups raw whole Snack Jack or regular pumpkin seeds
1 table spoon butter
1 pinch salt
1 pinch Cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).

Toss seeds in a bowl with the melted butter, salt and cayenne. Spread the seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown; stir occasionally.
