How to Make Crispy Gluten-Free Seed Crackers: A Crunchy Taste of Norway! 🌿
- Preheat your oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, ground flaxseeds, almond flour, sea salt, and chopped dried rosemary.
- Add the water, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar to the dry ingredients and stir well until a sticky, cohesive dough forms.
- Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out thinly—about 1/8 inch thick—to ensure the crackers will be crispy.
- Remove the top parchment and transfer the rolled dough with the bottom parchment onto the baking sheet. Score the dough gently into 12 squares using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes until the edges are golden and the crackers are firm to the touch.
- Allow the crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking them apart along the scored lines.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness and enjoy as a wholesome snack or appetizer.
Tips for the Best Results
- Roll the dough as thin as possible for extra crispness without burning.
- Use freshly ground flaxseeds to maximize flavor and nutrition.
- Experiment with herbs like thyme or dill for varied flavors.
- Make sure crackers cool completely to achieve the perfect crunchy texture.
- If your dough feels too dry, add water a teaspoon at a time until it holds together well.
Storage and Reheating
Store your gluten-free seed crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Keep them away from moisture to preserve their crispiness.
If they lose crunch over time, you can refresh them by placing them in a preheated oven at 300°F for 5-7 minutes until crisp again.
