Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Flax seeds
- 0.5 cup Chia seeds
- 0.25 cup Sesame seeds
- 0.25 cup Pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt (optional)
Instructions
Heat a dry, non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the flax seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds to the skillet and toast them lightly for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the seeds cool completely.
Once cooled, transfer the toasted seeds to a food processor or spice grinder.
Add the ground cinnamon and sea salt (if using) to the food processor.
Pulse the mixture 3-4 times, or until the seeds are coarsely ground. Be careful not to over-process, as you want the mixture to remain granular and not turn into a paste.
Transfer the flax seed sprinkle to an airtight container for storage.
Store in a cool, dry place or the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Use as a topping for oatmeal, yogurt, smoothies, or salads for added texture and nutrition.
