Sweet Treat Low-Carb Pumpkin Seeds

As I was seperating pumpkin seeds as we were carving pumpkins, I was having a craving for something sweet. So I decided that I would try roasting my pumpkin seeds a little different this year. I try to eat low carb so I have adjusted most of my cooking to accomodate this lifestyle and these seeds are just another great way to satisfy my sweet tooth!!! I will base all the ingredients on 2 Cups of Pumpkin Seeds just to be consistent but this will vary so adjust your recipe depending on how you sweet you like your seeds! Show more
