Serves:

Ingredients
- 3 cups raw, unsalted hulled sunflower seeds
- 1-2 tablespoons grape seed oil
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Spread sunflower seeds onto a large baking sheet in a thin layer.
- Place in the oven for a total of 10-15 minutes. After the first 5 minutes, rotate every 3 minutes until seeds are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool for a couple of minutes.
- Add roasted seeds to the bowl of your food processor or high powered blender. Begin to blend/pulse, for a total of 10-12 minutes.
- While the machine is running, add oil (1 tablespoon at first) and a pinch of salt.
- If you feel that your butter needs a bit more liquifying action, add additional oil. The full process will take 10-12 minutes to fully breakdown the seeds. Allow the machine to do it’s thing, turn it off once in awhile to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
