Remove seeds from pumpkin and wash off all pulp (you will learn anew the meaning of slippery when doing this). Place seeds in shallow baking pans. Half cover the seeds with saltwater (1 teaspoon salt to 1 cup of water).
Place in a 200 degree oven and bake until all water has evaporated and seeds are crisp. Store in airtight container if they last that long!
I found this recipe online just before Christmas. Because Christmas morning is always so hectic I usually just serve some type of sweet roll, juice, and coffee. This year I decided I would bake a recipe from scratch.
These are absolutely wonderful cinnamon rolls; very rich and tasty! The best part for me was that I could mix the ingredients, roll, fill, shape, then freeze them a couple days ahead of time. I made about 8 dozen of them, and took out only what I needed the night before so they can thaw out and rise. The next morning when everyone was done opening their presents I just popped them in the oven for fresh, warm cinnamon buns!

From FamilyFun reader Natalie D. of Utah: One recent Thanksgiving, my daughter, Sara, age 7, and I whipped up a batch of sweet turkey treats. Everyone loved the turkeys — especially the kids, who ate them for dessert.
RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
Oreo cookies
Royal icing
Whoppers candy
Candy corn
1. We used half an Oreo cookie for each body and an entire cookie for each tail, then used a dab of royal icing to affix Whoppers for heads.
2. We piped on icing eyes and also used icing to affix the candy corn feathers and beaks.
