Healthy Pumpkin Seed Recipes You’ll Want to Make Again

Directions

1. Start by heating your oven to 425 degrees.
2. If the rinsed seeds still feel damp, gently blot them with a clean paper towel to remove excess moisture.
3. Line a large cookie sheet with aluminum foil, ensuring there is enough space for the seeds to sit in a single layer without overlapping.
4. Apply a light coating of baking spray or a thin mist of healthy oil to the foil to keep the seeds from sticking.
5. Arrange the pumpkin seeds evenly across the prepared sheet.
6. Generously dust the seeds with low or no salt Cajun seasoning, making sure to cover the entire surface.
7. Add a second light layer of seasoning to account for any flakes that may fall off while baking.
8. Drizzle at least 3 Tablespoons of low or no salt Worcestershire sauce over the seeds.
9. Use a metal spatula to toss and turn the seeds, ensuring every piece gets coated with the seasoning and sauce.
10. Lay the seeds back out in a single layer on the foil.
11. Give the top of the seeds one more quick spritz of baking spray or oil.
12. Place the sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the seeds turn a nice shade of brown but remain crisp.
13. Keep a close eye on the seeds during baking, turning them at least once to promote even browning.
