Pure Seeds Crackers
Humans have been eating flax (linseeds) for thousands of years, and magical flaxseed is believed to fight fatigue, feed the skin, and enhance physical endurance.
Hippocrates, the father of medicine, advocated flax as the reliever of abdominal pains! In about the 8th century A.D., Charlemagne considered flax so vital that he passed laws and regulations requiring its consumption!
Linseeds increase blood sugar, treat kidney disorders and support the immune system, amongst a plethora of other health-giving benefits to the body.
Sunflower seeds support the immune system. Pumpkin and cumin seeds are high in zinc, which contributes to strengthening the immune system. Chia seeds have antioxidants that will enhance immunity, along with nigella seeds that boast intense immune regulation.
While caraway seeds have a high amount of vitamin C and folate, which is beneficial for the immune system.
With a wonderfully satisfying crunch, these crackers are perfect immune healthy snacks.
Ingredients
- 1 cup seed mix or 175g (50g linseed, 50g pumpkin, 50g sunflower 25g sesame)
- 1/2 cup or 80g chia seeds
- 1 tbsp of nigella seeds
- 1 tbsp of caraway seeds
- 1 tbsp of cumin seeds
- 1 tsp of sea salt
- 1/2 tsp of ground pepper
- 1 cup or 240ml of water
Directions
Preheat your oven at 340 F / 170 C (fan oven).
Combine all the dry ingredients together. Add the water and mix well. Let it sit for 15 minutes until the flax, chia, and water mix create a gel-like consistency.
Spread the mixture over your baking tray lined with baking paper and make it about 4 to 5 mm thick. Don’t make them too thin or they won’t keep together.
Bake for 50min to an hour, let them cool down, and break them into pieces with your hands. No need to be perfect, they look even cooler in irregular shapes!
Storage Tips
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 10 days. You can also freeze the individual servings. Place them on a baking sheet, then when fully frozen, remove and place them in the container/bag for up to 3 months.
