Ultimate Seed Crackers (Flax Seed Crackers

pumpkin seeds (pepitas)

flax seeds

sesame seeds

chia seeds

salt

water

Herbs and spices

Preheat your oven to 200 degrees fahrenheit.

Add the pumpkin seeds to a food processor and pulse several times, until it resembles coarse sand.

In a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin seeds and all remaining ingredients. Stir together for a minute, until the seeds start to gel together.

Get two 11x17 baking sheets and set aside. Place half the mixture on a large piece of parchment paper. Place another piece of parchment paper on top and roll to your desired thickness. Repeat with the other half.&nbsp;

Use a knife to score the mixture into evenly sized pieces.

Place the parchment sheets with the cracker mixture onto the baking sheets and cook for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until fully dehydrated, rotating the pans half-way through. Allow crackers to cool completely, then break apart.

These Flaxseed Crackers are seriously delicious.  They've got just 2g net carbs and you can eat them on low carb, paleo, Whole30, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and grain-free diets.

Step 1. 

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and cover a large 11 X 17-inch baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.  Lower the oven rack to the lowest setting.

Step 2. 

Add all dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl.  Mix together with a whisk to get any clumps in the flaxseed meal out.

Step 3

  Add boiling water and melted butter. Mix together with a spatula until a dough forms.  Test for saltiness and add more salt if desired.

Step 4. 

Use spatula to spread out the dough thinly on the parchment-covered baking sheet.  It should cover the baking sheet completely from edge to edge and be about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 5

  Bake on lower rack for 1 hour, checking occasionally to make sure it’s not burning.  Turn the baking sheet around halfway through so that it cooks evenly.  Pay attention as seeds are heat sensitive.

Step 6

  Turn off the oven and let the crackers dry in the oven for another hour.

Loved this recipe!  I didn't have the everything bagel spice so I just added some onion powder, garlic powder and paprika instead.  It came out delicious.  Will definitely make again!

I made these and have been enjoying them.  When spreading or rolling out the dough, make sure to spread out the middle.  I left the middle a little thicker and it did not crisp.  I also took a pizza cutter and divided the pan into six sections before baking.

So my local grocery store sells these delicious keto crackers called "Eve's" for $8.99 a bag. Each bag has probably half of what this recipe makes. And this recipe takes almost exactly the same! Now I can have crackers at a fraction of the cost! I didn't use any flavouring (not even salt) this time, but a tsp of erythritol to cut the bitterness. They still turned out great (and they are so fun to break into pieces). Next time I will try some spices or seasonings. They are perfect for charcuterie plates. Thanks a lot for this super-easy recipe!!

These Low Carb Flax and Chia Seed Crackers are Keto, paleo, vegan, gluten-free and will satisfy your craving for crunchy foods when you're on a low carb diet.

Flax Chia Seed Keto Crackers

tbsp chia seeds

pumpkin seeds

salt (or

tbsp za' atar (see note

tbsp date syrup (optional)

Preheat the oven to 200F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper

Soak the flax and chia seeds in water in a large bowl for 15-20 minutes

After the seeds have been soaked, add the rest of the ingredients and mix well

Wet your hands and spread the mixture evenly on the lined baking sheet, pressing it it tightly

Bake at 200F for 90 minutes. In the meantime, prepare another same size baking sheet and line it with parchment

Remove the crackers from the oven and flip the baking sheet onto the second lined baking sheet. Peel the parchment paper from the top of the cracker dough and bake for an additional 90 minutes

Once cooled, break it into pieces (makes approximately 35) (see note #2)

You can find seeds for Za'atar through Baker Creek.  I was excited to find this recipe, as I just ordered seeds this year.

Yum what a great idea for a healthy gluten free cracker! Can't wait to try these.

The only problem I have with these is that I don't know how to stop eating them!!! I used honey instead of date syrup and my own concoction of herbs &amp; spices. They turned out absolutely fantastic. It's so hard to find good GF recipes without a million ingredients. Will be making these often and sending the recipe to friends :) Thank you!!!

I have made these several times as suggested but went with a sweeter version myself this time with cinnamon and maple syrup and some currants. I also decided to substitute some ground flax for some of the flax seeds so we'll see how they turn out. I am trying to make them a little thinner too (more like "Mary's Crackers)  so reduced all the ingredients a hair as well.

Heather, I am so happy I read your comment before baking. I am in progress at the moment and to my surprise the paper got stuck!! Spraying with water helped 95%. 5% pealed off with the paper. I am so happy to rest the rest! Thanks soooo much!!

Vicky &amp; Ruth, many thanks for sharing. Crackers are amazing (even after half time :) )

I have made these half a dozen times now and love them. The last batch I added 1/2 tsp of garlic powder and 1/2 tsp chilli powder :) winner!

I don't "get it".  The directions say:
Re: "In a large bowl, soak flax and chia seeds in water for 15-20 minutes."
How much water?  One cup?  Enuf to cover the seeds?
Then what?
After 20 minutes, do I drain the water &amp; keep the seeds?  
Re:  "Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well."
So, am I using ANOTHER cup of water to make the crackers?
I haven't tried this recipe yet, but just reading the directions to make sure everything "adds up".

OMG!  These are delicious!  I couldn't find Za'atar, so I just added some thyme &amp; oregano.  Yummy!

Wow! These look amazing! I can't wait to taste them and try the texture.

Great recipe. I've varied it a couple of times:
- by adding 2 tbs of my home made chilli sauce,
- by adding 1/2 cup of soaked then chopped sun-dried tomatoes - I used the tomato water to pre-soak the seeds.
- by adding 1/2 cup of finely grated parmesan cheese. 
Thanks for posting.

This is a wonderful recipe! My only complaint, the first time I made them, I ate too many and got super bloated! I think my body needed to adjust to all that fiber :) 
   Instead of layering this spread across parchment on a baking sheet, I use only the parchment paper. I layer another piece of parchment across the top and flatten completely on my counter. I use my pizza spatula to lift the sheets and put them directly on the rack in the oven. The crackers are not perfectly smooth, but I like them this way. Because they cook right on the rack, I don't need to flip the mix half way through- I just leave them for 3 hours and their done.

So yummy! I used a homemade Ranch dressing mix instead of za'atar, omitted the honey and the salt. Delicious! Thank you for sharing

So much flavour!! It was easy to make. The thyme goes really well with it. I used beef bone broth instead of vegetable broth. Made it with homemade almond milk. Thanks for the recipe!

Simply the best Flax and Chia Seed Crackers

Flax and Chia Seed Crackers, simply genius!

Wondering if you have any suggestions on how to store these? I made 2 batches!

I love this recipe.  I serve these crackers with everything, especially dips.  I made my first batch with home made za' star and cut the salt to 1/2 teaspoon.  Today I am making a second batch with commercial za' star and will keep the salt down.  Also, I used honey in the first batch as I don't have date syrup.  I will cut that in half.
Definitely a recipe worth keeping.  I have passed it on to my brother and a number of friends.

I added the nutritional yeast (2 tablespoons), and they are FANTASTIC!  So glad I found your recipe and that I got/tried za'atar.. Yummy.  Thank you!!

Hello
I made these yesterday and they were so good, but today they're not crunchy. I stored them overnight in a sealed glass jar. Any tips on keeping the crunch? Thank you
