Basic sunflower seed butter
heartweed

2 cups of roasted sunflower seeds
1/4 cup oil of your choice ( walnut, coconut, olive...)

optional:
any spices you like be it sweet or spicy
and you can add a touch of coconut sugar, maple syrup or honey for sweetness.

I bought a jar from  one company that added roasted red peppers. It was very yummy and different. It reminded me of a cross between hummus and pimento cheese spread.

Directions:
In food processor add seeds are process fine add your oil (you may need a little less or little more depending on the amount naturally in your seeds) process till smooth.

You can roast raw seeds in 350 oven on a cookie sheet for about 8 minutes. You want them to look slightly darker than when you put them in. Sunflower seeds do not take long to roast and the outer seeds will roast faster so you may want to stir during cooking.
