Pumpkin seed butter?

[Crunchy Coochie]

Is there such a thing? Can I make it myself with a blender or food processor? TIA.

I don't know if it's available commercially, I've made some at home. I did it in my food processor, and it really didn't get as smooth as I would've liked. I added coconut oil to help with the texture, and some honey and salt for flavor. It seems difficult to get a smooth nut/seed butter at home regardless of what nut or seed you're starting with.

I saw some at a health food store the other day. I don't remember the brand name, though.

I've tried making it at home. It makes a very dry butter that tastes oddly not much like pumpkin seeds. I don't recommend it.
