Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup. In a bowl, mix the pumpkin seeds with melted butter until they’re nicely coated. Then, add salt, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and a splash of hot pepper sauce—give everything a good stir so the flavors blend well. Spread the seeds out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Pop them in the oven and let them bake for about 45 minutes, stirring once or twice, until they turn crispy and golden. Once they’re done, let them cool a bit before digging in.
