How to roast pumpkin seeds with three delicious flavors: Coffee and Chili flavored , Maple and Sea Salt flavored, and Salted.

Coffee and Chili Flavored Pumpkin Seeds
1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1/8 teaspoon of olive oil
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon finely ground coffee
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Maple and Sea Salt Flavored Pumpkin Seeds
1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Salted Pumpkin Seeds
1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Place the seeds in a sauce pan with just enough water to cover, adding 1 tablespoon of salt for every cup of pumpkin seeds.
Bring it to a boil and let them simmer for about five minutes.
Strain the seeds and let them completely dry.
Now mix your raw pumpkin seeds with the seasonings listed above.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper, and while keeping the flavored seeds separated, spread them out into a single layer.
Roast them at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes, or until the salted seeds just begin to look toasted–don’t let them burn!
