Reviews

Pumpkin Seed Protein is a finely milled, plant-based powder made from pumpkin seeds. With a smooth texture and mild, nutty flavor, it blends easily into shakes, smoothies, and baked goods. It’s a convenient dairy-free alternative to traditional protein powders and works well in both sweet and savory recipes.

Shelf-stable and versatile, pumpkin seed protein can also be added to oatmeal, pancake batter, soups, or sauces to boost protein content. Simple to use and easy to store, it’s a practical way to enjoy the natural goodness of pumpkin seeds in a convenient powdered form.

Suggested Use: Mix 1 Scoop (28g) to 12 ounces of juice or your favorite smoothie daily. Thoroughly mix in a blender, shaker, or spoon for 20-30 seconds. For best results, consume 1-2 servings daily, with one serving post-exercise.

Mixing suggestions: To increase flavor and nutritional profile, combine with our organic extra-rich cacao, banana flakes, and lucuma powders in a smoothie.
