These crackers were a big hit when I served them to friends. I think they will be surprised to learn how easy they are to make!

Ingredients

bowls of pepitas, sesame seeds, sunflowere seeds, chia seeds, and seasonings
  • Pumpkin Seeds
  • Sunflower Seeds
  • Sesame Seeds
  • Chia Seeds

For the exact amounts and detailed recipe instructions, scroll down to the end of this post, or click the Jump to Recipe button at the top.

You can change the proportions, if you wish, as long as you leave the total volume the same and don't alter the chia seeds or water.

Instructions

Mix up the seeds and water. Then let them sit and gel together for 15 minutes while you preheat the oven and prepare parchment paper.

Roll out your seed mixture between two oil-lined sheets of parchment paper. Then, remove the top piece before baking.

As you'll see in the video, turning over and cutting up the crackers part way through the baking process, produces the most uniform results. Bake your crackers until they are just beginning to toast around the edges.

These crispy morsels are flavourful and make an addictive snack even without any toppings!

Top Tip

During baking, turn large chunks of the sheet of crackers before cutting them up. That's much easier than turning each individual little cracker.

Recipe FAQ's

Are seeded crackers healthy?

Seed crackers are very good for you. Pumpkin seeds are an excellent source of magnesium, micronutrients, and antioxidants. Sunflower seeds contain heart-healthy fats. Sesame seeds provide protein. Chia seeds have protein.

What to Serve with Seed Crackers

Serve seed crackers on a cheese board with some grapes or on a veggie platter with Vegan Avocado Dip. This makes a great lunch, too!

I like that they're study enough for whatever appetizer toppings you might wish to add to them.

Storage

Your seed crackers will keep fine at room temperature for a day or two. After that, it's probably best to refrigerate them. I don't think I've ever had enough left over to freeze!

Notes

Oiled parchment paper seems to be the best tool for rolling out the batter without sticking. I use almond or olive oil. Peel off the top layer of parchment before baking.
