Cooking Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350°F
- 2
Rinse melon seeds under warm tap water using a mesh strainer.
- 3
Let drain a few minutes.
- 4
Dump out onto a clean dry paper towel. And pat dry.
- 5
Place seeds into a small bowl.
- 6
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil onto seeds. Just enough to coat them.
- 7
Pour seeds onto parchment lined baking sheet.
- 8
Spread the seeds out so they are in a single layer. (I used the back of a spoon, tapping off the sticking seeds)
- 9
Bake 10 minutes.
- 10
Stir up the seeds and bake an additional 3-5 minutes.
- 11
Let cool. And use.

NOTE! The color of the seeds do not matter as long as they are as thick and about just as hard as the black seeds. Do not use the ultra thin white seeds. My seeds are various stages of the black hardened seeds. All of same size are best.

NOTE! Amount of seeds doesn't matter. Just when u buy a seeded watermelon cut the melon into bite sized cubes, pick out the seeds and set aside. Store melon in an airtight container for easy on the go bite sized, seed free snack.

Have enjoyed this recipe since I was a kid. Can't remember a Halloween that my mom didn't make them! This is one of my recipes that I've never really measured the quantities for because my mom never measured so could never tell me herself. What's listed is based on eyeball guesstimate while adding. Lol. If you want them bolder or lighter in flavor adjust seasoning accordingly, but I would leave the butter at the same ratio. StephieCanCook -
