Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups pumpkin seeds, cleaned and rinsed
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the pumpkin seeds with the garlic powder, salt, crushed red pepper, and black pepper on prepared baking sheet and toss to combine. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until seeds are crispy and light golden brown. Remove from the oven and stir with a spatula or wooden spoon to release any seeds that have stuck to the baking sheet, and cool completely before serving.

Roasted seeds will keep in an airtight storage container for up to 1 week.

    spectacular !!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These are really tasty, such a great variation on your regular salted seeds. I will say that if you (or your kids) don't... like garlic or red pepper, you should take a pass. I like spicy foods, but I don't think these are overly spicy. They are a great, easy, fun snack. I'm so glad I found this recipe! This will be a new tradition at our house.Read more

    Change it up with Chilie Powder

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    After reading reviews the recipe sounded good but too spicy for my kids. So I replaced the crushed red pepper and black... pepper with Chilie powder and a few pinches of smoked paprika. I liked the idea of a bit of sweet so added 1-2 tsp dark brown sugar. I am an AB fan so used kosher salt. I also drizzled the seeds with a few tsp olive oil in a bowl before tossing with the seasonings to make it all stick. The results were great! A bit of chilie flavor w/ the garlic but not too spicy. You could adjust the heat easily w/ crushed red pepper or other ground red pepper to your taste. We may never go back to plain salted roasted seeds again! Read more

    registers a little too high on the spicy-meter for me!

    OK, I'm a fan of spicy food - and so are my husband and kids, but I think this seemingly innocent recipe is even a little too... much for us to handle. It's good, but just way too much burn! Read more

    Very good

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These turned out great! But they are NOT spicy-this coming from a person who eats chilies and peppers straight, and includes... them in everything possible. 1 tsp of crushed red pepper is nothing at all; if you do not like spicy food, or rarely eat spicy food, do us all a favor and leave the crushed red pepper out. Also, if you cannot handle it, don't let your kids try it unless you know they like spicy food and can handle it. Just use some common sense, but for those of you who insist on trying it anyway, here's a tip. Drink milk or cosume some other dairy product if it's too hot. Water and other liquids do absolutely nothing, and some make it worse. Read more

    Wow!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These are very good! They are spicy. I made a batch that was not spicy and added some paprika and 2 packets of sugar in the... raw. My spicy batch I added 1 packet of sugar in the raw as recomended by other reviews. These will go fast. Read more

    a little sweet and spicy

    Rated: 3 stars out of 5
    Like the recipe, but when I do it, I also dress the seeds with olive oil, seasoned salt, touch of red pepper, sugar and... cinnamon. Then bake....delicious! (and no...you do not peel them!)Read more
