Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole flaxseeds
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Dried herbs (e.g., rosemary, thyme, or oregano)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flaxseeds, water, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and dried herbs. Stir the mixture well until the flaxseeds are evenly coated and the mixture thickens slightly.
Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flaxseeds to absorb the water and become gel-like.
Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, using the back of a spoon or a spatula to form a thin, even layer about 1/8 inch thick.
Score the mixture into desired cracker shapes using a knife or pizza cutter. This will make it easier to break apart after baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crackers are firm and golden brown around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the crackers cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes. Once cooled, carefully break them apart along the scored lines.
Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Enjoy them on their own or with your favorite low-carb dips and spreads.
