About this product

What is pumpkin seed protein powder?

Pumpkin seed protein powder is what remains when the oil is pressed out of pumpkin seeds. The de-oiled seed is milled to a fine powder that carries the seed's protein in concentrated form, at 62 to 68% by weight. Ours uses Austrian organic seed from the Styrian tradition of pumpkin growing. It is one ingredient: pumpkin seed.

How it is made

The seeds are pressed to remove the oil, and the remaining press cake is milled to a fine, floury powder. It is ready to eat as it is or to use in cooking.

What it tastes like

Nutty and aromatic with the characteristic taste of pumpkin seed, and a fine, floury texture. The colour is green, a natural feature of Styrian pumpkin seed.

How to use pumpkin seed protein powder

Blend a scoop into a shake or smoothie, stir it into porridge or yoghurt, or use it in baking, where it can replace part of the flour in bread, muffins and pancakes. Its savoury character also suits soups, veggie burgers and dips.
