Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Brown rice flour
- 1 medium Pureed banana
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, mash the banana until smooth.
Add the unsweetened applesauce and coconut oil to the banana and mix until well combined.
Gradually incorporate the brown rice flour into the wet mixture. Stir until it forms a soft dough.
If the dough feels too dry, add water, one tablespoon at a time, until it holds together but is not sticky.
Lightly dust a clean surface with brown rice flour and roll out the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Using a small cookie cutter or knife, cut the dough into rectangles or desired shapes for easy gripping.
Place the cut-out crackers onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each piece.
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and the crackers feel firm to the touch.
Allow the crackers to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
