Flax Crackers

Relatively low calorie and easy to make. These have a moderately flavor that goes well with cheese and salami.

Ingredients Directions
Base:

  • 100g (1 cup) golden flaxseed meal
  • 1/3-1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp salt, to taste

Options:

  • 2 tbsp black sesame seed
  • 2 tbsp white sesame seed
  • 1 tbsp flax seed
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F
  2. In a bowl mix the dry ingredients together.
  3. Add the water and combine. Allow the mixture to stand for a couple of minutes then roll into a ball. If the dough feels a touch sticky, dust in a little more flax and on your hands.
  4. Once the dough is ready, roll it out between 2 parchment papers as thin as you like. (cooking times will vary according to thickness)
  5. Gently pull apart parchment paper from each side of the rolled dough onto the other (this is to make sure it does not stick to the paper while baking)
  6. Place the rolled dough with parchment paper onto a baking sheet and use a pizza cutter to cut into cracker sized pieces.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes to start, but may need longer. You know they are ready when the border and center are crispy and golden brown. If soft in the center, keep baking - they don't get much crispier when cooling down.
  8. Remove from the oven when fully cooked and allow to cool on a rack. Break the crackers apart and store.
