Power Snack: Savory Smokey Roasted Sunflower Seeds

Clean Recipes

Savory smokey roasted sunflower seeds, the perfect power snack.

Savory snacks are hard to come by, but these smokey roasted sunflower seeds totally hit the spot. They’re super easy to make and keeping a jar on hand is helpful when you’re ravenous and on the go. A handful or two, a hardboiled egg and some fresh veggies equals lunch – or one heck of a power snack.

Sunflower seeds are high in vitamin E and Copper, low in carbs and surprisingly high in protein (29 grams in 1 cup). Plus, they’re a great alternative to nuts.

So, make a batch – or a double batch – and reach for this no-sugar snack when needed. Guilt free, full of smokey bbq flavor.

Snack on!

Savory smokey roasted sunflower seeds, a delicious and healthy snack.

Use This

1 cup (5oz) raw sunflower seeds

1 tablespoon liquid smoke

½ teaspoon sea salt

¼ teaspoon garlic granules

¼ teaspoon onion granules

Do This

  1. Preheat oven to 300° F. On a small rimmed baking sheet, add sunflower seeds. Roast for 10 minutes.
  2. Pour toasted sunflower seeds into a small bowl. Add liquid smoke, salt, garlic and onion granules; stir to combine.
  3. Raise oven temp to 325°. Return mixture to a lined baking sheet, bake an additional 7 minutes. Allow sunflower seeds to fully cool before storing in a sealed jar.

Quick Tips: Liquid smoke makes these sunnies sing. I prefer the brand Living Nutritionals All-Natural Pure Liquid Smoke, as it’s made in the most natural way. Hickory and mesquite are burned at a low temp. The smoke is captured and diverted into a tunnel. Then, a stream of distilled water is channeled through picking up the smoke flavor. The liquid is then filtered, removing any sediment. No additional ingredients or additives are used.
