These are just a few of the ingredients. I took this pic in one of the first trials of this recipe. |
- 2 cups raw Sunflower Seeds
- 1 1/2 cups raw Pumpkin Seeds
- 2/3 cup raw Walnuts
- 1/2 cup Almonds
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla Almond Milk (or other non-dairy milk)
- 1 1/2 cups filtered Water (or more almond milk -- I added water to make the recipe cheaper, lol!)
- 2-3 tbs. Chia Seeds
- 1/2 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder (optional - I used sprouted brown rice protein powder)
- 3-4 tbs. Cinnamon
- 1 tsp. Sea Salt
- 5-6 pinches Stevia
1. In a high-powered, reliable blender, blend the sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts and almonds together. This will take a while so just be patient! Pulse it to look like a ground flour, then as you keep blending the natural oils in the nuts/seeds will be released leading it to emulsify into a butter/paste consistency. Keep scraping it down the sides so everything gets rotated into the blades, and with your spoon press it down together before pulsing it each time. After about 20 minutes of blending it should start forming a paste consistency.
2. Once it reaches a thick nut butter consistency, blend in the almond milk.
3. Blend in the chia seeds, cinnamon, sea salt, stevia, sea salt, optional protein powder and water.
4. Adjust the amount of cinnamon, sea salt and stevia to your taste.
Enjoy!
should last in the fridge about 1 week
