Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons Tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the raw sunflower seeds, tamari, and olive oil. Stir well to ensure the seeds are evenly coated.
Spread the coated sunflower seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overlapping for even roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring the seeds halfway through to promote even roasting. Keep a close eye during the last few minutes to prevent burning.
Once the sunflower seeds are golden brown and fragrant, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will crisp up further as they cool.
Transfer the cooled sunflower seeds to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
