Notes
One medium sugar / pie pumpkin yields about one cup of seeds, however you'll get a lot more out of a jack-o'-lantern style pumpkin. You can easily size this recipe up (or down), depending on how many seeds you have.
For best results, roast seeds in a single layer with a little space between them. If you're roasting lots of seeds, use two sheet pans instead of one.
Make sure to stir the seeds every five minutes as they bake. This helps them cook evenly, ensuring that every seeds get crispy.
