Scratch Sesame and Oatmeal cracker recipe ~ YUM ~

Sesame crackers fresh out of the oven

I’ve been perfecting this recipe for a while and I think it is now ready. Please leave any comments and images below when you try it!. They have a slightly cheesy flavor, mimicking some of those little wheat crackers I love from the organic grocery stores. This is my healthier version, and if I dare say, tastier too.

ingredients

• 1 C organic rolled and sprouted instant oats, finely and freshly ground yourself in a food processor or spice grinder

• 1/4 C Sesame seeds, also freshly ground, I use a spice grinder

• 1/4 tsp baking powder

• 2 T sesame or olive oil

• 2 T nutritional yeast

• 1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt* - use an unwashed mountain or sea salt for healthy reasons.

• 1/4 C water

Directions

• preheat the oven to 350º

• Grind the oats and the sesame seeds until fine. (grinding them yourself ensures freshness less oxidation)

• mix all ingredients in food processor or by hand. Batter should be evenly mixed, firm but pliable.

• form the batter into a fist size ball, and place on a piece of parchment on a flat cookie sheet

• place another piece of parchment on top and flatten evenly with a rollin pin until the batter is about 1/8” thick (thicker crackers need more baking time)

• slowly peel back the top parchment paper starting at the far corner to reveal the textured thin cracker dough.

• *you can sprinkle sesame seeds, salt or herbs on top at this stage.

• Use a pizza cutter to roll division lines into the flattened batter. If you don’t have a pizza cutter, use a serrated knife by just pushing it into the batter to create scores for easy breaking of the crackers after baked. Be creative.

• bake at 350º for about 18 minutes, checking at 18 minutes. The cook time depends on how thin the crackers are rolled out.

Enjoy solo or with jams or dips year round!

Your comments and photos of the crackers you made are much appreciated!
