FLAX SEED CRACKERS
I heard that if you mix flax seeds with an equal amount of water, soak them, and spread them thin, you'll get a tasty cracker. I heard right! These have a nutty, earthy flavor. They're light, but still sturdy enough for dips and spreads. Experiment with other seasonings if you like.

Steps:
- Place flax seeds in mixing bowl. Add salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne. Pour in water. Stir. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheeting with a silicone mat or parchment.
- Transfer soaked flax seeds to prepared baking sheet. Spread out into a thin, flat rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick, using a spatula. Score the rectangle into about 32 small, rectangles.
- Bake in preheated oven until flax seeds have darkened and contracted slightly, about 3 hours. Cool in oven with door ajar. Break into individual crackers.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F.
- Mix all ingredients together.
- Spoon onto sheet pan which is covered with a silicone mat or greased parchment paper.
- Cover the mixture with a piece of parchment or waxed paper. Even out the mixture to about 1/8 inch. I find a straight edge, like a ruler, works well, though you can use a rolling pin or wine bottle too. The important thing is not to let it be too thin around the edges or that part will overcook before the center firms up. So after you spread it out, go around the edges with your finger and push the thin part inwards to even it up.
- Bake until the center is no longer soft, about 15-18 minutes. If it starts to get more than a little brown around the edges, remove from oven. Let cool completely - it will continue to crisp up.
- Break into pieces.

Tips:
- Use a food processor: A food processor will make quick work of grinding the flax seeds and oats. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender or a mortar and pestle.
- Add your favorite seasonings: You can add any seasonings you like to these crackers. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and cumin.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the crackers tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Roll the dough out thinly: The thinner you roll the dough, the crispier the crackers will be. Aim for a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- Bake the crackers until they are golden brown: The crackers are done baking when they are golden brown and crispy. This will usually take about 10-12 minutes.
Conclusion:
These flax seed crackers are a healthy and delicious snack that are easy to make. They are perfect for packing in lunches or taking on the go. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy these tasty crackers anytime you want.
