For extra flavor, try tossing the seeds with a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of your favorite hot sauce before roasting. If your squash seeds are particularly large, you may need to increase the roasting time by a few minutes. Store roasted squash seeds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

01 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Prepare your oven and baking sheet: Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View 10 mins Clean and dry the seeds: After scooping the seeds from your squash, rinse them thoroughly under cool water. Remove any clinging strings or bits of squash flesh. Pat the seeds completely dry with a clean kitchen towel. The drier they are, the crispier they'll become. (10 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View 2 mins Season the seeds: Place the dried seeds in a small bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt (and smoked paprika/maple syrup, if using). Toss well to ensure the seeds are evenly coated. (2 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View 15 mins Roast to perfection: Spread the seasoned seeds in a single, even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the seeds begin to pop and turn golden brown. Keep a close eye on them towards the end to prevent burning. (15 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View 10 mins Cool and enjoy: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the roasted squash seeds cool completely on the sheet. This allows them to crisp up further. Enjoy immediately as a satisfying snack, or store in an airtight container for later. (10 minutes cooling time)
