Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin seeds (raw or roasted)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional) Optional for added flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional) Optional for added flavor

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin seeds, honey, olive oil, vanilla extract (if using), salt, and cinnamon (if using). Mix well until all the seeds are evenly coated.
  • Spread the coated pumpkin seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for about 10-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure they don’t burn.
  • Remove from the oven and let them cool completely. They will become crunchier as they cool.

Serving Suggestions

  • Enjoy your honey roasted pumpkin seeds as a snack or use them to garnish salads, yogurt, or desserts.

Notes

Stir the seeds halfway through roasting for even cooking. Feel free to experiment with spices like cayenne or cocoa powder for added flavor. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
