Crispy homemade seed and almond crackers made with flax, sunflower seeds, and almonds. An easy gluten-free snack packed with healthy fats and fiber.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 1/2 cup flax meal
- 2 Tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup water more as needed
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine sunflower seeds, slivered almonds, flax meal, sesame seeds, garlic powder, and salt.
- Stir in olive oil and ½ cup water.Let the mixture sit for 5–10 minutes so the flax meal absorbs moisture and thickens. Add a little more water if needed — it should form a spreadable, slightly sticky mixture.
- Transfer mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Place another piece of parchment on top and roll or press evenly to about ⅛-inch thick.
- Score (optional but helpful)Remove the top parchment and lightly score into cracker-sized squares with a knife or pizza cutter.
- Bake 25–35 minutes, until golden and firm.If the edges brown faster, remove them early and return the center to finish baking.
- Let cool fully — they will crisp up as they cool.Break apart along scored lines.
