Equipment

  • Colander

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup pumpkin seeds raw
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt kosher
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika optional
  • teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Set the oven to 350 °F (177 °C).
  • To get the pulp and fibers off, colander-wash pumpkin seeds. Dry completely with a towel.
  • Pumpkin seeds, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika (if used), and black pepper should all be combined in a small bowl.
  • Grease a sheet pan with a little olive oil. On the sheet pan, distribute the seasoned pumpkin seeds evenly.
  • Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the seeds are roasted and crunchy. To ensure even toasting, stir every 5 minutes. You can test for doneness after each stir by tasting a seed for crunchiness.
  • Place the cooled-down roasted pumpkin seeds in a bowl.
