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.
  • 2
    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.
