Pumpkin seed butter is made the same way as peanut or almond butter: seeds are roasted and ground until the natural oil turns them into a smooth paste. Ours has one ingredient, pumpkin seeds.
Why it is green
Hulled pumpkin seeds are dark green, so the butter is too. The colour is natural, with nothing added.
What it tastes like
Earthy and slightly savoury, less sweet than almond butter. Many people pair it with something sweet, such as banana, dates or a drizzle of honey.
Ways to use it
Spread it on toast, swirl it into yoghurt or oats, add a spoon to a smoothie, or mix it with lemon juice and olive oil as a dressing for salads and roasted vegetables.
Pumpkin seeds are a food people often add to their diet for their mineral content. If you follow a specific diet for a health reason, check with your doctor or dietitian.
