These Crispy Chia Seed Crackers are a healthy, crunchy snack made with almond flour, ground chia seeds, and sesame seeds.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 30 crackers

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup almond flour (50g)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds (30g, ground)
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds
  • Good pinch of flaked sea salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) if using an electric oven, or 155°C (310°F) for a fan-assisted oven. Proper preheating ensures even baking and crispy crackers.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground chia seeds, sesame seeds, and a good pinch of sea salt. Stir the dry ingredients thoroughly to distribute them evenly.
  3. Add Water and Form Dough: Pour in 3 tablespoons of water and stir using a spatula or fork until a cohesive dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable for rolling out.
  4. Roll Out the Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out thinly. Fold the edges over to create a neat rectangle, then lift the top parchment sheet and re-roll gently to even out the thickness.
  5. Pre-Cut the Crackers: Remove the top parchment paper, then pre-cut the dough into 30 squares using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife. Leave the dough on the bottom parchment paper for easy transfer.
  6. Bake the Crackers: Transfer the parchment paper with the dough onto a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the crackers turn slightly golden. Baking time may vary depending on the thickness of your dough.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet. This cooling step firm up the crackers, making them crisp and easy to break apart. Serve as a healthy snack or with your favorite dip.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding dried herbs or spices such as rosemary, thyme, or garlic powder to the dough.
  • Make sure to roll the dough evenly to ensure uniform baking and crispiness.
  • Store the cooled crackers in an airtight container to keep them crisp for up to one week.
  • If you don’t have ground chia seeds, you can pulse whole chia seeds briefly in a spice grinder or blender.
  • Adjust baking time if you make the crackers thicker or thinner to avoid under or overcooking.
