- 1 tablespoon neutral oil
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
Instructions

- Toss to combine until the seeds are evenly coated in both oil and the sugar-cinnamon mixture.
- Add the coated seeds to the prepared baking sheet pan and spread out into an even layer.
- Add the sheet pan to the preheated oven and give the seeds a stir every 5 minutes to help evenly toast them and help the sugar to not burn, total cooking time should be around 20 minutes.
- Pull the seeds out of the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
- After cooling, you can break apart the pumpkin seeds into small chunks if they have stuck together.
