Pumpkin seeds (aka pepitas) are the hulled seeds of pumpkins. They are often found in Mexican and Latin American cooking. Some bakers & pastry chefs like to use them in baked goods to introduce additional color and flavor. They’re a great snack by themselves and a tasty addition to granolas, muesli, trail mixes.

While pumpkin seeds sold as snacks often have the flat, wide edible hull on, for recipe applications they’re generally used with the hull off. These pumpkin seeds have been pre-hulled for your convenience.

Pumpkin seeds get their beautiful emerald green color from an abundance of chlorophyll. They are actually starch free and can be up to 35% protein.

Storage: Store raw pumpkin seeds in an air-tight container in a cool, dry place.

Shelf Life: 12 months or longer (under optimum conditions).

Use pumpkin seeds in snacks, salads, trail mixes, homemade granola and muesli, cookies, nougat, brittles (especially spiced brittles), muffins and other quick breads.

Use them as a substitute for mixed-in whole or chopped nuts (but not ground as a substitute for nut meals) or dried fruit in baked goods.

Toasting Pepitas:
To awaken even more of their flavor, lightly toast pumpkin seeds in a dry frying pan on the stove until just heated through and aromatic. Be sure to keep a close watch on them and jiggle the pan periodically to keep them from burning.
