Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

ingredients

  • 3/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper

directions

  1. Remove all the pulp from pumpkin seeds. Wash them throughly using a colander. Let them dry overnight in a single layer.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (177ºC).
  3. In a small bowl combine pumpkin seeds, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika (if using), and black pepper.
  4. Prepare a sheet pan with parchment paper. Evenly spread the seasoned pumpkin seeds on the sheet pan.
  5. Bake until the seeds are toasted and crunchy, about 12 to 15 minutes. Stir every 5 minutes for even toasting, and check for doneness with each stir by tasting a seed for crunchiness.
  6. Transfer the roasted pumpkin seeds to a bowl to cool down.
