Cinnamon and Sugar Pumpkin Seed. Satisfying crunch of cinnamon and sugar, and roasted pumpkin seeds. Simple recipe, only a few ingredients. Small batch.

Fresh roasted pumpkin seeds outweigh store bought ones every day. Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Seeds are an extra treat. It is a small batch that you can make along the side of traditional pumpkin seeds. These special pumpkin seeds provide two great crunches. The classic pumpkin seed crunch and the cinnamon and sugar crunch. Satisfying. The flavor is a wonderful combination pumpkin seed roast and cinnamon sugar. Fall recipes .... yummy!!
