Provided by Elise Shivamber

Categories     Snack

Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 cups Raw Pepitas
¼ - ½ teaspoon salt (optional, to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Empty raw pepitas onto a baking tray.
  • Add into the oven for 10 minutes.
  • When time is done (pepitas will be golden brown), let them cool for a few minutes before transferring to a food processor.
  • Process for 12-20 minutes, depending on your food processor. (My mini food processor took 12 minutes only, but a larger food processor may take up to 20 minutes)
  • During the process, you may have to remove the lid, push down the pumpkin butter towards the blades. Then place the lid back on the food processor and repeat.
  • If the food processor gets very hot or smells like motors, pause the food processor for a few minutes and then repeat.
  • The pumpkin seed butter will change over time from dry and crumbly, to releasing the pumpkin seed oil. This will happen and you will notice the food processor goes smoother.
  • Once the seed butter gains oil and is thinner and spreadable, add the salt to taste (between ¼-½ teaspoon). Process again for 30-seconds, until fully combined.
  • Transfer into airtight container.
  • Homemade nut butter lasts up to one month in the fridge.
