« flaxseed crackers » is a very important meal for
you health, try it deserves to be on tour main meal list.
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 cup ground flax seed
1⁄4 cup sesame seeds
1⁄4 cup buckwheat
1 or 2 hand full dried fruit (raisins, goji berries, cut of
figs)
1⁄2 tablespoon sea salt
1 cup water
Directions
1. Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Add the water. Mix again.
3. Let stand for at least 2 hours so that the sugar from the
fruit can be infused and soaked by the seeds. You may want to stir occasionally
to see if there is enough water. It's not absolutely necessary to soak when you
used ground flax seeds (as opposed to whole flax seeds) but I find the crackers
taste much better if you do.
4. Spread the batter evenly on a tray. I use oven trays with
Teflon or silicon sheets, dehydrator trays with Teflon sheets, you can even use
a large ceramic plate (but put some coconut oil on the bottom so it will come
off easily). You can spread the batter with the back of a spoon, a spatula or
with your hands.
5. Now, let's dehydrate. You can do this in a dehydrator,
conventional oven at lowest setting and preferably one that can be put on dry
air, direct sunlight, on top of a radiator. The key is that the temperature of
the food should not be raised above 40 degrees Celsius or 115 Fahrenheit. A
food thermometer (used for beef!) may help you determine this.
6. Wait until the top is dried well. In the sun and
conventional oven is is about 2 hours. In the dehydrator about 4 hours,
depending on how much water was added to the batter.
7. Then flip and let dehydrate for another hour.
Tips
• You can eat the crackers warm or cold. If dried well, you
can store the crackers in a container that will keep any moist out. (it's dry
when there is no condense in the closed container)
• These crackers is that are great for lunch with avocado,
pesto and tomato. You can add any other spread .
• Also great as a snack, or as chips. Just alter this basic
recipe.
• What's great about these flax seed recipes with crackers
is that the variations are limitless. Experiment with adding other seeds such
as hemp seed, or nuts (walnut, brazil, almond).
• Or try adding other dried fruit, such as dates or
apricots, even olives or dried tomatoes (cut them in small pieces and let them
soak with the seeds). You may want to cut down on the salt if you use olives or
dried tomatoes since they are salty by themselves.
• If you make the crackers a little thicker and eat them
warm, they truly taste somewhat like bread. (but much better)
