Ingredients

Seeds and Dry Ingredients

  • Whole flax seeds – 1 cup
  • Pumpkin seeds – ¾ cup
  • Sunflower seeds – ¾ cup
  • Hemp seeds – ½ cup
  • Salt – a pinch

Liquids

  • Warm water – 1 cup
  • Olive oil – 2 tablespoons (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the crackers.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, warm water, and a pinch of salt. Stir thoroughly until all seeds are evenly combined.
  3. Let Rest: Allow the mixture to rest for 10–15 minutes. This resting time helps the flax seeds absorb water creating a thick, gel-like consistency that binds the mixture together.
  4. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly brush the surface with olive oil to prevent sticking and add flavor.
  5. Spread Mixture: Evenly spread the seed mixture over the parchment paper into a thin, uniform layer. Aim for consistent thickness to ensure even baking.
  6. Brush Top: Lightly brush the top surface of the spread mixture with a little more olive oil to help crisp the crackers as they bake.
  7. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the surface is dry, and the edges turn a light golden brown color.
  8. Cool: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the crackers to cool completely to set properly.
  9. Break into Pieces: Once cooled, break the large sheet into cracker-sized pieces for serving or storage.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like rosemary or spices such as paprika to the seed mixture before baking.
  • Store the crackers in an airtight container to keep them crisp for up to a week.
  • Ensure the seed layer is spread thinly and evenly to achieve the best crispness.
  • These crackers are naturally gluten-free and vegan, making them suitable for various dietary needs.
