{"id":9112,"count":4,"description":"Sunflower seeds <\/b>boast a <\/span>mild nutty taste, <\/b>thanks to which they make for the perfect addition to both <\/span>sweet <\/b>and <\/span>savoury recipes<\/b>. You can also enjoy them on their own as a <\/span>healthy and nutritious snack<\/b>. Whether you choose a <\/span>peeled<\/span><\/a> or <\/span>unpeeled <\/b>version, your health will no doubt appreciate it. They boast a rich content of <\/span>healthy fats, dietary fibre, protein, vitamins<\/b> and other nutrients. They\u2019re the best in their natural state, but if you\u2019re a fan of more salient flavours, you can always find them <\/span>roasted <\/b>or <\/span>salted<\/b>.<\/span>\r\n\r\nSunflower seeds are also used to produce <\/span>sunflower oil<\/b>. The <\/span>refined <\/b>sunflower oil is suitable for <\/span>heat treatment<\/b>, while<\/span> cold-pressed<\/b> sunflower oil is excellent for use in <\/span>cold cooking<\/b>. What\u2019s more, they can be used as a <\/span>protein <\/b>source to enrich your diet, particularly when enjoyed in the form of <\/span>sunflower seed protein powder<\/b><\/a>. This is particularly appreciated by <\/span>vegans <\/b>and other lovers of <\/span>plant-based eating.\u00a0<\/b>\r\n

How to include sunflower seeds in sweet dishes?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nThe mild flavour of sunflower seeds is perfect for incorporating them into recipes that utilise more intense-tasting sweet ingredients. You can use them to enrich your breakfast <\/span>cereal <\/b>porridge<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>yoghurt<\/b><\/a> or <\/span>quark<\/b><\/a> bowls, topped off with some fresh fruit. In case you\u2019re in need of a quick and tasty snack, add them to a <\/span>fruit salad<\/b>, or create your own trail mix together with some <\/span>nuts<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>freeze-dried fruit.\u00a0<\/span><\/a>\r\n\r\nSunflower seeds won\u2019t go to waste when baking sweet pastries, either. They\u2019ll stand out beautifully in a loaf of <\/span>banana bread<\/b>, <\/span>muffins<\/b><\/a>, <\/b>as well as homemade <\/span>granola <\/b>or <\/span>muesli. <\/b>What\u2019s more, you can always add them to the batter for any <\/span>Bundt cake <\/span><\/a>or other <\/span>cake or pie<\/span><\/a> recipes you enjoy preparing.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

How to include sunflower seeds in savoury dishes?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nSunflower seeds also stand out in savoury dishes. This is why they\u2019re a popular choice of topping when finishing off <\/span>veggie <\/b>salads<\/b><\/a> or risotto. <\/b>What\u2019s more, they\u2019ll leave an impression when added to delicious <\/span>homemade <\/b>spreads<\/b><\/a> or a unique-tasting <\/span>pesto<\/b>, which can be mixed and flavoured according to your own taste.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re looking for a <\/span>savoury snack<\/b>, try sprinkling them over <\/span>puff pastry sticks or rolls<\/b>, or a delicious slice of <\/span>quiche<\/b>. They\u2019re also suitable for any<\/span> homemade baked goods<\/b>, and even for <\/span>low-carb seed bread<\/b>.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019d like to learn more about the use and benefits of sunflower and other types of seeds, make sure to read our article:\u00a0 <\/span>Which Seeds Are Most Nutritious, and What Health Benefits Do They Offer? <\/b><\/a>","link":"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/tag\/sunflower-seeds\/","name":"sunflower seeds","slug":"sunflower-seeds","taxonomy":"post_tag","meta":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe Best Fitness Recipes with Sunflower Seeds I GymBeam<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Sunflower seeds can be enjoyed peeled, roasted or salted.
