35+ Pumpkin Seed Recipes for Fall

Every fall, our cravings shift towards seasonal squash, and our soups, baked goods, and more take on a delightful shade of orange. Pumpkin love is serious, but the orange flesh isn't the only part of the pumpkin you should cherish. Pumpkin seeds and pepitas, which are only found in select varieties of pumpkins, are fantastic roasted or candied and make a perfect topping for casseroles, fall salads, and more. They're also great incorporated into stews like our Instant Pot Chicken Mole, hearty pasta dishes, and seasonal sweets like Mexican Chocolate Zucchini Bread and Easy Jasmine Rice Pudding.
