Spiced Pumpkin Seeds
Report
Spiced pumpkin seeds are a spicy snack made with pepitas and chili powder and not a lot of effort. Simple and satisfying and curiously addictive.

Ingredients
- 1 cup raw pumpkin seeds (hulled or unhulled)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil or mild vegetable oil plus more for the baking sheet
- 2 teaspoons chili powder (any variety you prefer)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt plus more to taste
- Pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper and slick it with olive oil.
- In a bowl, combine the pumpkin seeds, oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and cayenne pepper if using, and mix well.
- Spread the seeds in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until aromatic and golden brown at the edges.☞ TESTER TIP: The seeds may start to make a popping sound after a few minutes in the oven. Don't be alarmed!
- Immediately slide the sheet of parchment and the pumpkin seeds off the baking sheet to cool. Taste, and add more salt, if needed. If you have any leftover spiced pumpkin seeds, store in an airtight container.
