  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Spread the pumpkin seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast until golden, stirring the seeds halfway through, 15-20 minutes. Start checking after 15 minutes and watch out to make sure they don't burn - they progress from pale to brown very fast.
