Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (150g) raw pumpkin seeds
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) tamari
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
- Measure 1 cup (about 150g) of raw pumpkin seeds and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
- Drizzle 2 tablespoons (30ml) of tamari over the seeds. Stir well to ensure all the seeds are evenly coated.
- Add 1 tablespoon (15ml) of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Mix until the seeds are evenly covered with the seasonings.
- Transfer the seasoned seeds to the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to prevent burning. The seeds should be golden and aromatic.
- Remove from the oven and let the seeds cool completely on the baking sheet. They’ll crisp up as they cool. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
Notes
Keep a close eye on the seeds during the last few minutes of roasting to prevent burning. Let the seeds cool completely to achieve maximum crunch.
