Super Seedy Crackers
We are always looking for new ideas for the lunch box as well as quick healthy lunch and snack ideas and we have found ourselves a new winner!
Ingredients
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup pumpkin seeds
½ cup chia seeds
½ cup sesame seeds, (white, black or a mixture)
¼ cup flaxseed, (linseed)
¼ cup hemp seeds
1 ½ cups water
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Optional extras
1 tbsp dried herbs – mixed herbs or parsley work well
3 tbsp dried cranberries, raisins or sultanas
1 tsp chilli flakes or spice mix
Pinch of salt
How to make
Preheat oven to 160 degrees
Mix all ingredients together and set aside for 15 minutes to allow the seeds to absorb the water and the chia seeds to create a gel.
Spread half the mixture over a lined baking tray until it is about 3-4mm thick. Repeat with the second half of the mixture on a second lined tray.
Bake for approx 50 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Rotate the trays every 20 minutes during cooking to ensure the crackers bake evenly.
Remove from the oven when cooked and allow to cool. Break up into whatever shapes you like!
Store in an airtight container.
