Pumpkin seeds

What are pumpkin seeds and how can you use them?

Pumpkin seeds come from pumpkins and have a mild, nutty flavour. You can mix them into a variety of dishes, such as bread, muffins, muesli and salads. They add a light crunch and a warm flavour to your recipe. They can also be enjoyed as a snack. Lightly toast them in a pan for extra flavour. Pumpkin seeds contain natural fats, magnesium and zinc.

Pumpkin seeds in different quantities

You can choose from various pack sizes. If you occasionally add a handful to your yoghurt, a 150 gram bag is a convenient option. If you regularly bake bread or make granola, a larger pack may suit you better. For example, you can choose a 1 kilo or even a 5 kilo bag.

Choose from different varieties such as:

• Unsalted
• Salted 
• Roasted
• In a seed mix
• With honey or caramel sea salt

Using pumpkin seeds in recipes

These seeds are easy to incorporate into many recipes. You can mix them into:

• Yoghurt and quark
• Bread dough and bread mixes
• Smoothies
• Salads
• Granola and muesli

Looking for an idea to get started? Try making your own spelt bread with pumpkin seeds. Mix spelt flour, a small amount of yeast, lukewarm water, salt and a little butter. Knead the dough well, add a handful of pumpkin seeds and leave it to rise. Then bake the bread in the oven until a golden crust forms. The seeds provide a pleasant crunch and a warm flavour. This bread is delicious for breakfast or lunch.

Combining pumpkin seeds with other products

Pumpkin seeds pair well with other ingredients from our range, such as sunflower seeds, linseed and oat flakes. Use them together in bread, granola or biscuits. For extra texture, you can also add dried fruit such as cranberries.
