Gluten-Free Sprouted Seed Crackers
Yields 1220ML
250g ground flax seeds
100g chickpea flour 100g
toasted sesame seeds
23g salt
4g whole peppercorns, ground
Zest of 2 lemons
400ml water
75ml olive oil
1g garlic powder
150g toasted sprouted pumpkin seeds
150g toasted sprouted sunflower seeds
METHOD
Line 2 10X15″ baking sheets with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 320°F.
Add half of the pumpkin seeds and half of the sunflower seeds to a food processor and pulse. They should be broken down, but not crumbly.
Add them to a large bowl along with the rest of the ingredients. Use a large rubber spatula to mix well until fully combined.
Once mixed, add half of the mix onto it. Use the spatula to spread it out relatively evenly on the parchment.
Lift the sheet off the tray and place on a flat surface. Place another piece of parchment paper of the same size on top of it and use a rolling pin to press down a few times horizontally on the top sheet of parchment paper so that it spreads the cracker mix evenly. Press down on it again a few times vertically to make it more even. Use the rolling pin to roll out any other unevenness if necessary until you have a flat, even surface.
Repeat this process with the other half of the cracker mix.
Cook in the oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, check to see if there’s any browning happening on the bottom or if the edges have started to dry out. If not, cook for another 20 minutes until the bottom has started to brown and the edges have started to dry.
At this point, take the trays out of the oven and carefully flip the mix so that the bottom is now facing up. Return to the oven and cook for another 40 minutes, or until the center the cracker mix is hard and toasted (you can check this with a knife).
Remove from oven and leave to cool completely before cracking. Store in an air-tight container for up to 1-2 months. Avoid storing it in room with direct sunlight for longer consumption.
