AIR FRYER PUMPKIN SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 360 degrees F.
• Cut a 10-inch circle in the top of the pumpkin and remove the top. Scrape out the pulp and seeds with a large spoon and transfer to a bowl. Separate the seeds from the stringy pulp, then rinse the seeds in a colander under cold water. Shake the seeds dry; it's okay if they're damp so don't blot them with paper towels (they will stick to the paper).
• Toss together the pumpkin seeds, olive oil and salt in a clean bowl. Transfer to the air fryer basked in a single layer and cook, shaking the basket every 5 minutes, until lightly golden and crispy, about 15 minutes. Cool before serving.
