Crunchy Roasted Edamame
Umm hello? Did you know that there are 17 grams of protein in one cup of edamame? Yas!
I have been snacking on these little loves for some time now. They couldn’t be easier to make, with just 4 ingredients and an oven set to 350 degrees.
Use them to top a salad, take them on a hike, throw some in your purse. So many uses! Amazing!
Here’s the recipe, which isn’t really a recipe at all (because it’s so easy).
Have fun!

Serves 4
An easy, super-high protein snack!
Total Time
1 hr
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen, shelled edamame cooked according to package directions, and cooled.
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil in liquid state (might have to microwave it)
- kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- After cooking edamame, spread it out on a clean towel, and use another clean towel to press lightly on edamame until most of the moisture is gone.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay out the dried edamame, and drizzle with coconut oil. Use hands to coat.
- Lay out edamame in single layer and sprinkle with chili flakes and kosher salt (probably about 1-2 tsp depending on your taste).
- Roast edamame for 15 mins and then turn with a spatula and cook another 15 minutes. Repeat until edamame are crispy and slightly browned, about 45 mins to an hour depending on your oven.
- Let cool on paper towels and store in an airtight container in the fridge.

Hello! Does the edamame stay crispy if you don’t eat it all right away? Can you store it in an air-tight container? How many days would it stay crunchy and fresh in air-tight storage? Thank you!

Hi Beryl, an airtight container would definitely keep these crispy for a day or two, especially if they’re really cool before you store them. I haven’t had them stick around too much longer than that, so I can’t really tell you:)

Are these super spicy or have just a kick? Are they supposed to be somewhat hard (crunchy)? It sounds weird, but I’ll have to try at least once. I love edamame and I love coconut oil 🙂

Hi Karen, they’re not super spicy and they should be fairly crunchy but not tooth-breaking hard. Have fun:)

Can a microwave do this for me?

Ah sorry, I don’t think it would work!
