After recently
snacking on some pumpkin seeds, I had the deliciously «crazy»
idea to turn them into pumpkin seed butter!Flavor aside, pumpkin seeds have an impressive nutrient profile, packed with protein, fiber, heart -
healthy omega - 3 fats, vitamin E, B vitamins, magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, copper, tryptophan, and immune - boosting antioxidants that have been shown to promote everything from optimal cardiovascular and liver health, to strong hair, to insomnia prevention.The
following recipe is just about as simple as it gets.
These keep really well and make a tasty
snack, so if you're going to make a batch on the fly, why not double it up so you have a
healthy snack for later on (click the link for 15

following day?
