Homemade Seed Crackers

This easy seed crackers recipe is made with just 5 different types of seeds and water. The result is a delicious, healthy, and tasty cracker.

I've purchased similar crackers at Trader Joe's but I had no idea just how easy these are to make.

Making Seed Crackers

Basically, you combine seeds with water and spices and bake them into one giant cracker.

I used pumpkin, sunflower, white sesame, flax, and chia seeds. However, you could also use black sesame seeds, poppy seeds, hemp seeds, and other small seeds. Not only do they taste great but they contain healthy fats, fiber, protein, antioxidants, and lots of vitamins and minerals.

I also added a bit of salt and some turmeric because I keep hearing how turmeric is great for inflammation. Feel free to add a bit of other kinds of seasoning you love such as onion powder, black pepper, or dried herbs.

Add water and wait. They magically form a thick mixture because the chia seeds absorb the water and become gelatinous binding all the seeds together. Some people use another grain like almond flour or all-purpose flour but it's not needed.

Spread the mixture onto parchment paper on a cookie sheet and bake.

Remove it halfway through the cooking process and score the seeds for later. A pizza cutter works great but you can use a knife.

These are a little on the large size where I was able to get 16 crackers from one sheet. However, I think I could have easily scored it into 32 crackers. There's always next time.

And, let me tell you there will be a next time for this delicious seed crackers recipe. Eat them alone, dip them in hummus or serve them on a charcuterie board with your favorite cheese.
