Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Separate seeds from pulp and rinse under warm water. Pick out remaining pulp. Shake off excess water, place on a towel, and roll up. Let dry in a warm location for 2 to 3 hours.
  2. Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or foil.
  3. Step 3

    Mix dry pumpkin seeds and melted butter together in a bowl. Sprinkle on garlic salt, onion salt, and paprika. Spread on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Step 4

    Bake in the preheated oven until golden and crisp, stirring halfway through, about 45 minutes. Let cool and store in an airtight container, but they taste amazing warm, too.
