Fresh ingredients for the pumpkin seed recipe: raw seeds, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. 1 cup pumpkin seeds (washed and dried)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or melted butter)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
- After washing and drying the pumpkin seeds, toss them in olive oil or melted butter. Add your desired seasonings such as salt, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Spread the seasoned pumpkin seeds evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Ensure the seeds are in a single layer to guarantee even roasting.
- Roast the seeds in the oven for 20-30 minutes, stirring halfway through the roasting process. Keep a close eye on them to avoid burning. The seeds should be golden brown and crunchy when done.
- Remove from the oven and let the seeds cool completely before serving or storing in an airtight container.
