Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw shredded pumpkin flesh
  • 3/4 cup soaked, sprouted pumpkin seeds (soak 1/2 cup for 5 hours, drain, and remeasure -- your seeds should expand to 3/4 cups after the soaking process)
  • 1/4 cup sweetener: Stevia, coconut crystals, coconut syrup, honey, etc.
  • 1/4 cup coconut butter
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice/almond milk/coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (soaked in water 10 minutes)
  • dash vanilla powder or extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Soak chia seeds in 2 t. water for 10 minutes. Combine all ingredients in your food processor. Puree until you have a whipped creamy consistency.

  2. Transfer to an airtight container and place in the freezer to set for at least 30 minutes. Your pumpkin butter will thicken the longer it chills.
