Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Pumpkin seeds
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
If using fresh pumpkin seeds, rinse them thoroughly in a colander to remove any pulp and strings. Pat dry with a kitchen towel.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin seeds, olive oil, salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the seeds are well-coated with oil and seasoning.
Spread the seasoned pumpkin seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the pumpkin seeds for 20-25 minutes, stirring once midway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the seeds to cool completely on the baking sheet. As they cool, they'll become crispier.
Serve the roasted pumpkin seeds as a keto-friendly snack, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
