This 7-ingredient sunflower butter contains a ton of essential amino acids, protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Spread it on top of your protein bar, overnight oats or your favorite toast.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups roasted sunflower seeds 
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt 
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp flax seed meal
  • 1 tbsp shelled hemp seeds
  • 1 tbsp roasted unsalted pumpkin seeds
  • 1-2 tsp coconut sugar or powder stevia to sweeten 

Directions

  1. Add roasted sunflower seeds to a food processor and blend for 5 to 7 minutes or until butter forms.
  2. Scrape down sides as needed. Resist the urge to add any additional oil or water
  3. .Add salt, chia seeds, flax seed, hemp seed, and pumpkin seeds. Pulse to combine. 
  4. Taste and adjust flavor as desired, adding more salt, or a bit of sweetener of your choice.
  5. Avoid using liquid sweeteners, as these cause the butter to seize up and lose form.
  6. Store in a mason jar in the fridge and spread over protein bars or toast as often as you like.
