- 2 cups shelled edamame (or frozen mukimame - see notes.)
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (Not garlic salt.) Feel free to use more if you love garlic!
- ½ teaspoon salt add more to taste
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add the frozen shelled edamame to a bowl, then pour the avocado oil over the edamame, and then stir to coat. Spread the edamame into a single layer on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Place the baking sheet onto the center rack of your preheated oven. Roast for 10 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
While the edamame is roasting, add the salt and garlic powder to a small bowl and stir to combine.
Once the edamame has roasted for 10 minutes, carefully remove it from the oven. Stir the edamame, sprinkle with the garlic salt mixture, then stir again to coat them with the seasoning.
Place the seasoned edamame back into the oven and roast for an additional 10 - 15 minutes or until cooked to your liking. Roasting the edamame longer will make them crunchier once they have cooled, which makes a nice crunchy edamame snack. However, ovens can vary, so you should still keep an eye on them during the last few minutes so they do not burn.
Remove the edamame from the oven and allow them to cool. Do a taste test and sprinkle with additional salt if desired. Serve the garlic-roasted mukimame fresh or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator to save for later. Enjoy!
- Mukimame is the Japanese term for shelled edamame. You can get frozen bags of mukimame or remove the edamame beans from their pods if using whole edamame.
Parmesan Garlic Edamame
For a recipe variation, you can make parmesan garlic edamame by using my Plant Based Parmesan Recipe or regular grated parmesan cheese if you are not following a vegan diet. If you're adding the parmesan, I recommend cutting the amount of salt or omitting it completely, since parmesan is a salty cheese. Sprinkle the edamame with the parmesan during the second half of baking.
