  • Oven Instructions
  • Once you have removed the seeds from the squash, place them into a bowl of water. Using your hands remove the pulp and place the seeds onto a towel to dry.
  • Once the seeds are completely dry. Set your oven to 275 degrees.
  • Place the seeds on a half sheet pan in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with kosher salt to taste.
  • Roast for 35-45 minutes. Check them every 15 minutes and flip the seeds to cook evenly. The time may be more or less depending on how dry your seeds are and how old your squash was. It's best to check them often.
  • Allow to cool before eating. They need to be completely cool before storing.
  • Air Fryer Instructions
  • Place the seeds in your air fryer and cook for 5 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • Reduce the heat to 320 degrees and cook until the seeds are browned and tender in the middle about another 10-15 minutes depending on the moisture content of the seeds and their size.
  • Allow to cool before eating. They need to be completely cool before storing.
