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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
