Ingredients

Scale
  • Pumpkin seeds (from one medium pumpkin)
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt (sea salt or kosher salt preferred)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Instructions

  • Scoop out the seeds from the pumpkin and separate them from the pulp. Rinse the seeds thoroughly under cold running water to remove any remaining pulp.
  • Dry the cleaned seeds completely. Spread them in a single layer on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and let them air dry for at least an hour, or preferably overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  • Place the dried seeds in a bowl, drizzle with oil, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and toss again to ensure even coating.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the seasoned seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Allow the roasted seeds to cool completely on the baking sheet before storing in an airtight container.
