Another recipe for toasted pumpkin seeds:

Toasted Pumpkin Seeds

 1 1/2 cups pumpkin seeds
 2 tsp. melted butter or oil (olive oil or vegetable oil work well)
 salt to taste
   Options To Taste:
 garlic powder
 cayenne pepper
 seasoning salt
 Cajun seasoning blend 

 Preheat oven to 300F. While it's fine to leave some strings and
 pulp on your seeds (it adds flavor), clean off any major chunks.
 Toss pumpkin seeds in a bowl with the melted butter or oil and
 seasonings of your choice. Purist will want only salt as a
 seasoning, but, if you're feeling adventurous, experiment and have
 fun with seasoning blends. Spread pumpkin seeds in a single layer
 on baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes, until golden brown,
 stirring occasionally.
