Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Line a large baking sheet with baking paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl: combine the pepitas, oil or butter, sweetener (if using) and seasonings of your choice. Mix together until well combined.

Step 3

Spread the coated pepitas across the baking sheet in a single layer.

Step 4

Place in the middle of the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. About halfway through the cook time, take out the baking pan and stir the pepitas to ensure the seeds evenly cook.

Step 5

Let cool on the baking tray about 5 minutes. Roasted pepitas with added sweeteners will need about 10 minutes to cool on the baking sheet.

Step 6

Enjoy as a snack or use as a salad topping.
