@thrivingonplants: Pumpkin Seed Butter 💚 It's a great nut-free spread alternative and you only need 1 ingredient to make it 🫶🏼 Spread it onto toast, add it onto your oatmeal or even in desserts! Ingredients 3 cups pepitas/pumpkin seed kernals *Optional add ins: Sea salt, sweetener of choice, cinnamon Method: 1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Spread the pumpkin seeds out onto a lined baking tray and bake for 5-10 minutes or until lightly golden. 2. Add into a blender or processor and blitz until it becomes a fine meal. Use a spoon to scrape down the sides as needed and then continue the process on low to medium speed until the seeds release their natural oils. It should eventually become a smooth and runny paste. This can take up to 20 minutes depending on your appliance. NOTE: If using a blender, a tamper is a MUST otherwise it won't blend properly. A processor would usually be the better/easier option! 3. Transfer into a clean airtight jar. Enjoy! #vegan #plantbased #EasyRecipe #pepita #pumpkinseeds
