AuthorJordanThis seed butter is a fantastic alternative to almond butter (or other nut butters), especially if you have an allergy or intolerance to nuts. It can be used in pancakes, bliss balls, smoothies, mixed into yoghurt with berries and more.
Add the sunflower seeds to a very good quality/ high speed blender, food processor or use a thermomix for the best results. Blitz until it resembles a fine meal.
Scrape down the sides and add the coconut oil in.
Blitz again until the mixture begins to turn into a butter. If the mixture isn't turning into a butter easily, add a touch more coconut oil if needed to help it along.
You may need to scrape down the sides and re-blend a few more times. Keep blending the mixture until it resembles a beautiful seed butter.
Scoop into a glass jar and store in the fridge or pantry. Consume within 1 month.

Do sunflower seeds need to be soaked before use?
For this recipe they don’t 🙂
However if you wanted to make them easier to digest you can use pre-activated sunflower seeds
