Sweet Cinnamon Sunflower Seed Butter

A rich, creamy, and nut-free spread packed with warm cinnamon flavor and natural sweetness. Perfect for slathering on toast, dipping apple slices, or swirling into morning oatmeal!

Other Ingredients

  • 1-2 tbsp warm water (or neutral oil, added as needed).

Method

  1. Gently roast the sunflower seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly until fragrant and lightly golden.
  2. Add sunflower seeds to a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend until they break down into a fine meal, then scrape down the sides.
  3. Keep blending until the oils release and it becomes creamy (this takes 3-5 minutes).
  4. Add the maple syrup, cinnamon, and optional salt. Pulse to combine.
  5. If it feels too thick, add a splash of warm water (or oil) 1 teaspoon at a time while blending until you hit your desired smoothness.
  6. Store in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks!
