SPICED PUMPKIN SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, allspice, cumin and cayenne. In a large bowl, beat the egg white until frothy. Stir in the pumpkin seeds, then add the sugar mixture and toss until the seeds are completely coated.
• Spread the seeds out on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

ROASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS

Steps:

• While it's OK to leave some strings and pulp on your seeds (it adds flavor) clean off any major chunks.
• Toss pumpkin seeds in a bowl with the melted butter or oil and seasonings of your choice.
• Spread pumpkin seeds in a single layer on baking sheet.
• Bake for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.

EVERYTHING BAGEL PUMPKIN SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Coat a parchment-lined baking sheet with the olive oil.
• Cut a 10-inch circle in the top of the pumpkin and remove the top. Scrape out the pulp and seeds with a large spoon and remove to a bowl. Separate the seeds from the stringy pulp, then rinse the seeds in a colander under cold water. Shake the seeds dry; don't blot them with paper towels--they will stick.
• Spread the seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake until beginning to dry out, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the white and black sesame seeds, dried minced garlic, dried minced onion, poppy seeds and sea salt in a small bowl to combine.
• Whisk the egg white in a medium bowl until foamy. Add the baked pumpkin seeds and toss until fully coated. Add the everything seasoning mix to the bowl and continue to toss until the seeds are coated in the seasoning. Spread the seeds back on the original baking sheet and continue to bake until golden brown and crispy, about another 25 minutes. Cool before serving.
