Ingredients

  • 400g / 3 cups sunflower seeds
  • 50g / 0.3 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • ΒΌ tsp vanilla extract
  • ΒΌ tsp sea salt

Method

  1. Place the sunflower seeds into a large pan or wok on the hob and dry-fry for a few minutes until they have toasted. Be careful not to burn the seeds though!
  2. Transfer the seeds into the blender. Add the melted coconut oil and blitz on a low setting until smooth. This will probably take about 5 minutes in total and you can do it in stages and stop for a little while if you are worried about the blender over-heating.
  3. When the sunflower seed butter has reached a good consistency add the honey, vanilla extract and sea salt and blitz one final time.
