Serving size: 1 serving
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium bowl, combine the raw sunflower seeds, olive oil, and fine sea salt. Toss thoroughly until every seed is lightly and evenly coated.
Pour the coated seeds onto the prepared baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread them into a single, even layer, ensuring no seeds are overlapping. This is the key to achieving a uniform, crispy texture.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, stirring the seeds at the 5-minute mark to promote even browning. The seeds are done when they are fragrant and a light golden-brown color. Watch them closely in the last few minutes as they can burn quickly.
