Pumpkin Seed Butter: Traditional Recipe
Tara Carpenter, NC.
Therapeutic nutritional support offered worldwide for people of all ages healing with The Body Ecology Diet (B.E.D.).
This nutrient-dense pumpkin seed butter contains no sugar or unhealthy oils and is a safe alternative for “nut-free” kids. We love to spread on flax crackers, roasted nori sheets, green apples, waffles, and celery sticks 🙂 This is considered a stage 1 safe food for people healing on The Body Ecology Diet; just be sure to not overdo as can be mucus-forming and hard-to-digest when use too much.
Pumpkin Seed Butter
Makes: 1 1/4 cup
Ingredients
1 1/2 c. raw pumpkin seeds (soaked/dehydrated)
4 Tbs. flax, hemp, or other cold-pressed oil
1/2 tsp. green stevia powder
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
Pinch of sea salt
Method
Place all ingredients into a high-quality blender, such as a Vita-Mix.
Gradually increase speed to medium-high until a smooth paste.
Add more spice or sweetener as desired
Use a rubber spatula to scrape seed butter into a clean, glass jar.
Store in fridge to keep for quite some time unless there is double-dipping!
Tips

- Raw pumpkin seed butter combines with all fruit, except melon.
