Pumpkin seed flour & pumpkin seed butter – my new favorite healthy baking ingredients! <\/h2>\n

Pumpkin Seed Butter is actually my new favorite ingredient for all my healthy desserts. I like that Pumpkin seeds are cheaper than most nuts and widely available. I like that they are EXTREMELY high in both protein and zinc. A great source of plant-based protein.<\/p>\n

Pumpkin Seed Butter can be bought in most stores but you can also make it yourself using this recipe<\/a>. So good on overnight oats<\/a>, in salad dressings or just on toast.<\/p>\n

Pumpkin Seed Flour is similarly easy to make. This is how it goes.<\/p>\n

How to make pumpkin seed flour: <\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Toast the pumpkin seeds over medium-low heat in a heavy pan until fragrant and let cool down completely.<\/li>\n
  2. Grind the cooled down pumpkin seeds in a spice\/coffee grinder adding only a few tablespoons at a time. Pulse until a meal is formed. Repeat. This can also be made in a small high-speed food processor but I prefer the spice grinder. But watch out, it turns to butter quicker than you think.<\/li>\n
  3. Run the pumpkin seed flour through a sifter to catch any big pieces, grind the big pieces again.<\/li>\n
  4. Store your homemade pumpkin seed flour in an airtight container in the fridge for a few weeks. A great alternative for long-term storing in the freezer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You can use pumpkin seed flour like you would almond flour, but be aware it will have a different color and a slightly different flavor. <\/p>\n

    Any food processor works here, but a blender will probably do the trick as well. You will just need to scrape down the sides to make sure all the beans break down. <\/p>\n
