Ingredients

  • 1 cup pepitas I like the raw ones from Trader Joes since they will become roasted
  • 1/2 tablespoon chili powder omit if nightshade-free
  • 1/8 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/4 cup monk fruit granulated

Instructions

  • Whisk egg white till frothy and add all sweetener and spices. Mix in pepitas and coat well. Bake in a 350ºF preheated oven covered in parchment paper for about 15 minutes. Make sure they are spread in a single layer. Stir occasionally to make sure they are evenly drying. Separate them while still warm then cool completely.
