Oven-Roasted Pumpkin Seeds (4 Servings)

How to Cook Pumpkin Seeds in an Oven (2)

Ingredients

Scale
  • One cup sugar pumpkin seeds
  • One tablespoon olive oil
  • One pinch of sea salt
  • Seasoning powder

Instructions

  1. Set the oven to heat at 325F, and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Next, take the pumpkin seeds out of the pumpkin and remove the fibers. Wash the seeds in a colander to remove the pulp. Then, dry them thoroughly on a towel. If you’re store-bought, skip these steps and pour the amount you need on the baking sheet.
  2. Pour and sort the pumpkin seeds on the baking sheet, and pour some olive oil over it. Sprinkle the salt and seasoning powder to taste, and toss the contents to mix. Then, slide the tray into the oven.
  3. Bake for 20 minutes or more if the seeds are large. You want them to attain a crisp, golden brown color. Once ready, bring the pan down and let the pumpkin seeds cool completely. Then, use them as you wish or store them in a jar or container.
  4. Oven-roasted pumpkin seeds will hold in storage for up to a week or more at room temperature. And when frozen, you can keep them for up to a month. And if you want more instructions on roasting pumpkin seeds in the oven, consider this video recipe.
