This spiced pumpkin bites seed cycling recipe is a super fun and tasty way to spice up your snacks - and some say seed cycling can help regulate your hormones! Pumpkin seeds are one of my favorite ways to get a little extra boost of protein - they're super affordable and taste amazing roasted. Pair them with warm spices and you'll take them to another level!
If starting with whole flaxseeds, I recommend grinding them first and setting aside.
Add pumpkin seeds to food processor and blend until a somewhat coarse flour forms (you don't want it TOO powdery). Combine with the remaining dry ingredients: ground flaxseeds, coconut sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, and sea salt.
Stir in the coconut oil and the vanilla. You will have a slightly dry dough, so add water as needed until you have a firm dough that sticks together.
Divide into approximately 16 or 32 balls (depending on size preference). For looks: press a pumpkin seed into the top of each bite! Store in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
For seed cycling, divide into either 32 portions and consume two each day of your follicular phase, or into 16 large portions and consume one each day!
