INGREDIENTS & DIRECTIONS
Estimated time: 1 hour
Effort/Skill: Easy
Ingredients
1/2 cup raw shelled pumpkin seeds
1 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 cup raw shelled sunflower seeds
1 tbsp whole flaxseeds
2 tbsp ground flax seeds
1/4 cup hemp seeds
black sesame seeds (you can use regular sesame seeds, I just like the colour contract)
1/4 cup chickpea flour (or brown rice flour)
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tsp each: garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, basil, chilli powder, dried chives
optional: 1 tsp vegeta
1/2 tsp salt
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 cup boiling water
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350F.
In a large bowl, add in chickpea flour, seeds, spices and lemon juice. Then gradually add boiling water.
Mix well. Add more water if necessary.
Let the mixture sit for a minute until the seeds gel together.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Scrape seed mixture onto the baking sheet. Spread flat with clean hands or a spatula. Your mixture should be sticky, but very little getting stuck to your hands/spatula.
Place a large piece of parchment paper over the flattened mixture, covering every inch. Take a rolling pin (I used a glass jar) and roll the cracker mix as thin as possible.
Pre-cut into squares with a pizza wheel.
Place in preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes or until well baked..
Store in a cool, dry place in a container.
Enjoy with your favourite creamy hummus!
