Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon garlic salt
• 1 teaspoon onion salt
• 2 cups raw pumpkin seeds
• ¼ teaspoon paprika, or more to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Separate seeds from pulp and rinse under warm water. Pick out remaining pulp. Shake off excess water, place on a towel, and roll up. Let dry in a warm location for 2 to 3 hours.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or foil.

Step 3

Mix dry pumpkin seeds and melted butter together in a bowl. Sprinkle on garlic salt, onion salt, and paprika. Spread on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until golden and crisp, stirring halfway through, about 45 minutes. Let cool and store in an airtight container, but they taste amazing warm, too.
