Had to blend much longer and add some oil, but in the end it turned out amazing!

Made this last week and loved it! We had to keep blending for a good while, it took us around 20-30 minutes to get the texture right so it takes some patience :) Next time we’re planning to add some cashews for hopefully a creamier texture, as this was still a little bit dry. The colour turned out just as beautiful as in the pictures and the taste is delicious 😍

Loved this! Would be great on toast with some berries🍓🫐The pumpkin seeds did lose quite some moisture due to the oven so I had to add a few tbs of olive oil to make it smooth instead of crumbly and dry

Hey Cathelijne! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with the pumpkin seed butter recipe. Based on feedback, we've added a note to the recipe to add oil if needed 🤗
In case it helps, we use conventional heat, so the symbol on our oven shows the top and bottom heating without the fan, with the pan in the middle rack of the oven. In case you use the option with a fan, also called convection bake, the baking time will be less to avoid overly drying the seeds ✨

My son has a nut allergy so I was happy to see a seed-based recipe on here. I followed your tip to keep blending and the texture came out lovely! We had it on toast with some syrup drizzled on top!
