Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Combine the pumpkin seeds, olive oil, maple syrup, and salt in a bowl and stir to coat.
  3. Spread the seeds out on a baking sheet and cook for 10 minutes.
  4. Stir the seeds and cook another 10-15 minutes or until golden and crispy. Keep an eye on them in the last few minutes to prevent burning.
  5. Cool completely before serving.

Notes

- For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or a dash of cayenne pepper before roasting. - Make sure to spread the pumpkin seeds in a single layer on the baking sheet to ensure even roasting and crispiness. - If the seeds aren't getting crispy, they might need a few more minutes, but watch them closely as they can burn quickly. I once left a batch in for just a minute too long and they went from perfect to burnt charcoal!
