What can I serve with these savory crackers?

You can serve these savory crackers as a snack on their own or as a side dish with cheese platters or soups. You can also serve various dips like hummus or guacamole with the crackers.

How thin should I roll out the dough for the crispiest seed crackers?

Roll the seed mixture out to a thickness of about 3 mm. The easiest way to do this is by placing the mixture between two sheets of baking paper and rolling over it with a rolling pin. This way it won't stick to your rolling pin and you'll get a nice, even sheet that dries and bakes evenly in the oven.

How can I best store homemade seed crackers?

Let the seed cake cool completely on the baking sheet after baking. Then break or cut the crackers into pieces and store them in a well-sealed, airtight cookie tin or glass jar in a cool, dry place. This way, they will stay deliciously fresh and crispy for weeks.

What can I do with any leftovers or crumbs from the crackers?

Absolutely do not throw away crumbs or broken small pieces! They are a fantastic, crunchy topping over a fresh salad or a bowl of warm soup. This way you waste nothing and give your meal a delicious extra crunch.

I could hardly stay away from these savory crackers. The seeds promote good bowel transit. The sunflower and pumpkin seeds contain magnesium, which helps relax your muscles and increases resistance to stress.

Preheat the oven to 175 °C.

Put all the dry ingredients in a bowl and pour the warm water over them. Let it rest for 5 minutes so the chia seeds can swell.

Mix everything with your hands.

Place baking paper on the baking tray and spread the mixture over the baking paper.

Place a sheet of baking paper on top of the mixture and roll out to a thickness of about 3 mm.

Remove the top sheet of baking paper and bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven.

Flip the seed cake over and bake further if it is not yet dry.

Break or cut into pieces (if you want nice, square pieces, cut while everything is still wet).

Let the crackers cool completely on the baking tray. Store them in a sealed box in a cool, dry place.
