Chili Lime Roasted Pepitas (5 Ingredients!)

pepitas ((raw shelled pumpkin seeds))

chili powder blend ((NOT chili flakes

tsp sea salt

cayenne ((optional))

Preheat oven to 300 F (150 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

To the prepared baking sheet, add all ingredients (pepitas, lime juice, maple syrup, chili powder, sea salt, and cayenne (optional)). Mix with clean hands or a wooden spoon to evenly coat the pepitas with spices. Spread them into a relatively even layer — it’s okay if they’re not perfectly even (the result will be tasty pepita clusters)!

Bake for 7-12 minutes or until the pepitas are lightly browned, stirring halfway. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. The flavors will intensify as they cool.

Let cool completely before storing in a sealed container at room temperature for 4-5 days or in the refrigerator or freezer for up to 1 month.

Chili Lime Roasted Pepitas (5 Ingredients!) | Minimalist Baker Recipes

In our house, I start roasting the pumpkin seeds while Dad helps carve the pumpkin. After the pumpkin is carved, the seeds are ready and we all sit down to watch a Halloween movie. It&#39;s a simple, fun tradition that ends with a delicious snack the family loves!

Air Fryer Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

pumpkin seeds

avocado oil

garlic salt

smoked paprika

Remove 2 cups worth of pumpkin seeds from a fresh pumpkin and place in a colander. Rinse well, removing all of the pumpkin pulp from the seeds.

Place the seeds between two layers of paper or cloth towels and press dry.

Add the seeds to a mixing bowl and drizzle with the oil. Sprinkle on the garlic salt and paprika. Stir well to coat.

Pour the pumpkin seeds into the air fryer basket. 

Cook the pumpkin seeds at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, shaking the basket every 5-10 minutes. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes if needed to get the seeds perfectly roasted, but keep a close eye on them as they’ll go from done to burnt easily. 

Let cool before serving.

Chili Lime Roasted Pepitas

Ounces Raw Pepitas (about 1 cup)

Teaspoons Olive Oil

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

In a large bowl, mix pepitas, olive oil and seasoning. Toss to coat evenly. (Note: my chili lime seasoning contains salt. If yours does not, add ½ teaspoon per 1 cup of raw pepitas).

Empty seasoned pepitas onto a parchment lined baking tray.

Add into the oven for 12-15 minutes. Stir halfway through.

When time is done (pepitas will be golden brown), remove from the oven and let cool slightly.

Transfer into airtight container.

Pepitas last 1 week at room temperature in airtight container.

Spicy Roasted Pepitas are the ultimate quick snack—crunchy, toasty, and full of warm, smoky flavor with just a hint of heat. Perfect for munching, topping salads, or gifting in little jars!
