Seed Crackers

 Seed Crackers



Ingredients

1/2 cup almond flour (substitute teff flour, whole wheat flour, rice flour, etc.)

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

1/2 cup pumpkin seeds

1/4 cup sesame seeds

1/4 cup ground flax seeds

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/4 cup hemp seeds

1 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon garlic granules (optional)

1 heaping teaspoon dried rosemary (optional or herbs of your choice)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup water

Instruction

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix.  It will be quite soupy.

Let it sit just a minute or two, just until it starts to bind together. If it sits too long, it can be a bit challenging to spread on the pan.

Dump onto a non-stick baking mat (or oiled parchment paper) that has been placed on an 18 x 13-inch baking sheet.

Spread out the cracker mixture with a rubber spatula, getting it as evenly distributed on the pan as you can.  Then take an offset metal spatula dipped in water and smooth the mixture, working it to the edges of the pan. Keep dipping your spatula in water- this makes all the difference!  Try to get the thickness even; it should fill the entire sheet pan, and the crackers will be slightly less than ¼-inch thick.  Once smooth and even, score the crackers with the spatula or a straight edge dough scraper.  (Alternatively, you could leave unscored and break apart after baking.) It is important that you just gently press down to imprint through the cracker and then lift to the next spot rather than drag your edge through the dough.

Put the sheet pan in the oven on the middle rack.  Bake for 50 min to 60 min (they will start to brown around the edges and smell toasty).  Remove from oven.  Break up the crackers when just cool enough to handle and turn the crackers over on the cookie sheet.  Slide back into the oven with the oven temp turned off.  Leave crackers in the cooling oven for another 15-20 minutes or until crisp through.  They will crisp more as they cool.

Save cracker crumbs and use them for topping on salads or soups.
