Ultimate Nut and Seed Crackers
These dense, nutritious crackers are delicious and satisfying. Enjoy them alone or with a Daniel Fast friendly spread, such as guacamole or hummus (see notes for links to recipes).
Ingredients
- ½ cup chia seeds
- ½ cup chopped pistachios
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
- ½ cup raw sunflower seeds
- ¼ cup sesame seeds, black and/or white
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Prepare an 11 x 17-inch baking sheet by lining with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine chia seeds, pistachios, walnuts, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and salt. Stir well. Then add water, and stir again.
- Let mixture set for about 5 minutes or until water is completely absorbed.
- Using a spatula, spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet into one large rectangle, covering as much of the sheet as possible.
- Bake 30 minutes, and remove from oven. With a large spatula, carefully flip the rectangle. (Don’t worry if it breaks. You haven’t ruined anything!) Bake another 20-25 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool 10 minutes before serving. Break into pieces approximate 2-inches x 1.5-inches.
- Store in an airtight container up to one week. If crackers soften while in storage, place in a preheated 300-degree oven for about 5 minutes to crisp them up again.
- Yield: 10 servings (serving size: about 6 crackers)
