HEALTHY SEED AND OAT CRACKERS
These crackers are super crispy, loaded with nutrients and they couldn't be easier. Just give them a quick soak in hot water - this helps them create a gel, for binding - and pop them in the oven. They're a great gluten-free and vegan alternative to traditional crackers as the perfect accompaniment to cheese, dips or hummus and, when broken into small pieces, for lending salads added crunch. They're so good you may never buy crackers again!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 18-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
- Combine the oats, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds, poppy seeds and 2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl and stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Add the olive oil, maple syrup and hot water and stir to incorporate. Allow the mixture to rest for 15 minutes.
- Stir the mixture to ensure any residual liquid on the bottom is evenly dispersed and then pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Place a second piece of parchment on top and then use the palms of your hands to press and spread the mixture into an even layer (1/8 to 1/4 inch thick), making sure to spread all the way to edges of the pan (gently running a small offset spatula over the parchment also helps to spread the mixture evenly). Remove the top piece of parchment and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Bake until the edges are slightly golden brown and beginning to pull away from the sides of the baking sheet, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and cut into 24 pieces (each 2 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches) using a pizza cutter or sharp knife (see Cook's Note). Return the crackers to the oven and continue to bake until light golden brown and crisp, about 45 minutes. Allow the crackers to cool completely before serving. Store the crackers for up to 1 week in an airtight container.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Grease a baking sheet well and set aside. (Note: To make sure that the crackers come off the pan easily, you can also use a few drops of lecithin along with the oil you use for greasing the pan.).
- Place all dry ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until they are consistency of cornmeal. Stop to stir ingredients if they stick.
- Stir in milk.
- Use a frosting knife or rubber spatula to spread batter thinly and evenly on the well-greased baking sheet.
- Place in preheated 325 degree oven and bake slowly until delicately golden, about 15-20 minutes After about 10 mins, use a sharp knife to score the dough in squares, rectangles or desired shape. Watch them carefully, if the crackers on the outside brown faster, remove them and continue to bake the rest.
- Crackers are the crispest while they are baking, so loosen them from baking sheet as soon as they come out of the oven to keep them from crumbling.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread 1/2 cup rolled oats on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until light golden and fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool then transfer to a food processor; process until finely ground. Add flour, sugar, coarse salt, and pepper; pulse until combined. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add 3 tablespoons cold water and pulse until dough just comes together, adding up to an additional tablespoon as needed.
- Turn dough out onto plastic wrap, shape into a rectangle and wrap in plastic. Chill for 45 minutes. Transfer chilled dough to a sheet of parchment paper. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup oats and roll into a 10-by-12-inch rectangle. Using a fluted pastry wheel, cut into thirty-two 2 1/2-by-1 1/2-inch rectangles. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt. If dough becomes soft, chill for 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 2 heavy large baking sheets. Place oats in large bowl. Sift flour, sugar, baking soda and salt into same bowl. Using fingertips, rub in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk; stir until dough forms. Transfer dough to floured surface. Roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, cut out rounds. Arrange on prepared sheets, spacing apart. Gather scraps, reroll and cut out additional rounds.
- Bake oatcakes until edges are pale golden, about 12 minutes. Transfer baking sheets to racks and cool 5 minutes. Transfer cakes to racks; cool completely. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
Tips:
- Use a food processor or blender to grind the oats into a fine flour. This will help the crackers to be smooth and crispy.
- Be sure to measure the oats correctly. Too much oats will make the crackers dry and crumbly, while too little oats will make them soft and chewy.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crackers tough.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the crackers to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the crackers until they are golden brown and crispy. This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a nice crunch.
Conclusion:
Oat cake crackers are a delicious and healthy snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats, and they can be made with a variety of different ingredients to suit your taste. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy snack or a healthier alternative to store-bought crackers, oat cake crackers are a great option.
