Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups pumpkin seeds or pepitas
- Cooking oil or cooking spray
- Sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray or oil.
- Spread pumpkin seeds evenly across the baking sheet.
- Sprinkle with sea salt.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- Stir the seeds and continue baking for another 10–15 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
- Allow seeds to cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Dry Seeds Well: Dry seeds roast better and become extra crispy instead of steaming.
- Watch Closely: Pumpkin seeds can go from golden to burnt quickly during the final few minutes.
- Flavor Variations: Try garlic powder, smoked paprika, curry powder, ranch seasoning, cinnamon sugar, or even a splash of soy sauce before roasting.
- Storage Tip: Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week for easy grab-and-go snacking.
