Loaded with nuts and seeds crackers
These crackers are the best. They are crunchy, chunky, so flavorful and above all ridiculously good. Also, they are super easy to make, and don't ask for any hard-to-come-by ingredients.
Ingredients
- 40 gr pecans (or sub almonds or walnuts)(approx. ⅓ cup)
- 50 gr pumpkin seeds/pepitas (or sub other type of seeds like hemp or sesame seeds)
- 50 gr sunflower seeds (or sub other type of seeds like sesame or hemp seeds)
- 180 gr chia seeds (don't sub with other seeds!)
- 80 gr flax seeds (don't sub with other seeds!)
- 1 egg
- 1 egg white
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp cream of tartar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175C/350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toast the nut by heating up a skillet, adding the whole nuts, and swirling them around for a minute or two until fragrant and slightly darker.
- Add the toasted nuts to a food processor/ high speed blender and pulse them into small pieces. Not too small, you don't want to turn it into nut meal.
- Now add the seeds, baking soda and the cream of tartar to the blender bowl and quickly mix it all together.
- Add the egg, egg white and coconut oil to the mixture, and mix it again into a thick batter.
- Spread the batter out on the lined baking sheet with the back of a spoon, cover it with another piece of parchment paper and roll the batter out with a rolling pin until it has a thickness of between ½ and ¾ cm / ⅕ and ⅓ inch thickness. Very carefully precut the spread out batter into crackers so they are easier to separate once they are baked.
- Place the baking sheet in the middle of the oven and bake the crackers for 13-15 minutes until they are slightly golden on the top.
- Take them out of the oven, and cut the crackers loose before they are firm. If you wait until they are hardened the crackers have a bigger chances of breaking.
