How to Make Santa Fe Style Pumpkin Seeds Pepitas 2 Ww Points

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup shelled green pumpkin seeds (pepitas), 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and ½ teaspoon liquid smoke.
  3. Toss to coat the seeds evenly.
  4. In a small bowl, combine ½ teaspoon chili powder, ¼ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional), and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the pumpkin seeds.
  6. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon to ensure all seeds are well coated with spices.
  7. Spread the seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the seeds are dried and lightly browned.
  9. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet on a wire rack for about 30 minutes. This allows them to crisp up further.
