Nothing says the autumn season quite like wearing your favorite oversized sweatshirt with a bowl of roasted cannabispumpkin seeds while watching a classic scary movie. This recipe is an ideal way to celebrate the holidays, and it offers great versatility in the kitchen. Whether you have a stash of cannaoil or prefer to use cannabutter, this edibles recipe is a perfect fit. You can even use a cannabis tincture to coat the seeds for a precise and customizable experience. Follow these Stoner Strategies for a festive, crunchy snack that makes the most of your seasonal harvest.
The Pumpkin Prep
One of the best parts of this recipe is the ritual of the pumpkin harvest. To get started, cut a round hole in the top of your pumpkin around the stem. If you cut the top at a slight angle, the lid will rest perfectly in place—allowing you to create a Jack-O'-Lantern while your seeds are in the oven!
-
Harvest: Scoop out the pumpkin pulp and seeds, gently scraping the interior walls to get as much as possible into a bowl.
-
Separate: Use two separate bowls to divide the seeds from the pulp. Remember to save the pulp! You can wrap it and store it in the freezer for future use in pumpkin cookies, bread, or pie.
-
Clean: Place the seeds in a strainer and rinse thoroughly with cold water to remove any remaining pulp residue.
-
Dry: Lay the cleaned seeds evenly on a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. Drying them thoroughly is the secret to getting a perfect crunch during the roasting process.

Pro-Tips for Success
-
The Stoner Strategies Secret: If you don't have cannaoil or cannabutter on hand, you can simply coat your seeds in regular butter or oil, then add a dose of cannabis tincture while mixing. This allows for a very consistent distribution of your desired potency in this edibles recipe.
-
Storage: Store your roasted seeds in an airtight container to keep them crunchy. They are great as a standalone snack or as a crunchy topping for seasonal soups.
-
Consistency: When baking cannabis edibles, watch the oven closely. Since pumpkin seeds vary in size, you want to pull them out the moment they reach that perfect golden brown to prevent burning.
