Making delicious home roasted sunflower seeds is easy. Just follow these straightforward steps:

1. Preheat your Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for roasting.
2. Prepare Seeds: If using hull-on seeds, give them a quick wash and ensure they are dry. For hulled seeds, rinse and drain well.
3. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine sunflower seeds with olive oil and salt. If you’re using additional seasonings, add them as well.
4. Spread on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the seeds in a single layer.
5. Roast: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to promote even roasting. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
6. Cool Down: Once golden and aromatic, remove the seeds from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet.
7. Store: After completely cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
