TOASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS WITH SUGAR AND SPICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Spread pumpkin seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until dry and toasted. Larger seeds may take longer.
• In a large bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons of white sugar, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pumpkin seeds and sprinkle the remaining sugar over them. Stir with a wooden spoon until the sugar melts, about 45 seconds.

• Remove from heat and drain well.
• Place on a paper towel and pat the seeds fairly dry (they do not have to be completely dry!).
• Brush about 1 tablespoon olive oil in the bottom of a cookie/baking sheet.
• Spread out the seeds onto the cookie/baking sheet in one layer.
• Bake for about 20 minutes or until the seeds begin to brown.

TOASTED PUMPKIN SEED BISCUITS

Steps:

• In a small skillet over medium-high heat, coast the pumpkin seeds, shaking the pan frequently until they are golden brown and begin to pop, about 6 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line an 11-by-17-inch baking sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking powder, cream of tartar, and sugar. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture. Combine until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Carefully mix in the buttermilk just until it is incorporated. The mixture should appear crumbly.
• Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured clean work surface. Lightly press the dough together to form a 3/4-inch-thick disk. Using a 2-inch-round biscuit cutter, cut out 12 biscuits, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet. Using a pastry brush, lightly coat the tops of each biscuit with egg white, and sprinkle with the reserved pumpkin seeds. Bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Serve warm.

ROASTED PUMPKIN SEEDS

• Toss seeds in a bowl with the melted butter and salt. Spread the seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown; stir occasionally.

PUMPKIN SEED COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line two baking sheets with parchment. Cream the butter and sugars together until very light and fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. Once combined, stir in the flour, cocoa powder, bicarb, chocolate, pumpkin seeds and ¼ tsp salt.
• Scoop 10 large tbsps of the mixture onto the trays, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading. Add a pinch of flaky sea salt before baking. Bake for 10-12 mins or until firm at the edges but still soft in the middle - they will harden a little as they cool. Leave to cool on the tray for a few mins before eating warm, or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Will keep for three days in an airtight container.
