Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

What should you do with all those pumpkin seeds from your carved pumpkins? Why, roast them, of course. Usually people enjoy them as a savory snack, but in our house we like to sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar over our pumpkin seeds.

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

• Seeds from 1 pumpkin
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
