These are crunchy and salty. Mixing them with other snack foods like chips, pretzels would be interesting. These can be kept for weeks in a sealed bag. It would definitely be an asset to clean the seeds of all squash matter and then let them dry out thoroughly. This will ensure a better tasting snack.

How To Make roasted squash seeds

  • 1
    Remove the seeds from your squash and clean them thoroughly. Get all the squash off of them. Then, let them dry completely otherwise they won't taste as good.

    Once the seeds are good and dry, preheat your oven to 275'F.
  • 3
    Toss the dry squash seeds with salt and butter and place in a single layer on a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil.
  • 4
    Place in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until the seeds turn a golden brown. You can also toss them with garlic salt or other even some cajen spice if you like. Be creative.
