Air Fryer Pumpkin Seeds
Share recipe
Description
These air-fried pumpkin seeds are wonderfully crunchy with just a hint of smoky flavor. Best served cold.
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups pumpkin seeds
- 2 teaspoons avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
Directions
- 1. Place pumpkin seeds in a small colander and rinse well.
- 2. Lay 2 sheets of paper towels on a plate. Place pumpkin seeds on the towels and cover with 2 more paper towels. Press down to remove most of the water. Let dry for a minimum of 15 minutes.
- 3. Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- 4. Transfer seeds to a medium bowl. Add avocado oil, paprika, and salt. Use a medium spoon to mix. Place the seeds in the air fryer basket and cook for 35 minutes, shaking the basket frequently. Watch carefully during the last 5 minutes; the pumpkin seeds can go from perfectly cooked to burned very quickly.
