Raw Flax-Tomato Crackers (Dehydrated) image

Years ago, I bought a bag of raw crackers at my local cooperative. After trying them I thought, I can make these myself, so I gave it a try. The thing I love about these goodies is you can change the flavour by changing the herbs you use. They are not cooked so be prepared to dry them for at least 8 hours. I live in a dry...

Categories     Crackers

Time 8h25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 c golden flax seeds (soaked 2 hours in filtered water)
8 large sun-dried tomatoes (soaked 1/2 hour in filtered water mixed with tamari or shoyu)
1/3 large bell pepper
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sea-salt
2 large paste tomatoes (raw and chopped)
1 medium red onion, (chopped)
1 large garlic clove (pressed)
1/4 c dried herbs (your choice)
salt and pepper
paprika or cayenne to taste

Steps:

  • 1. NOTE: The flax seeds, once soaked should be very gooey in texture, that's exactly how they should be.
  • 2. Put all the ingredients EXCEPT the flax seeds into a food processor.
  • 3. Process until well combined.
  • 4. Remove the mixture from the food processor and on low add the flax seed until well mixed. You want the flax seeds in tact.
  • 5. Using an off-set spatula spread a large scoop of the mixture onto a teflex sheet. The mixture should be about 1/8-1/4" thick. Not to thick or thin. If it's too thin it will crumble, if it's too thick it will take a long time to dry, so try to get it fairly close to the suggested dimensions.
  • 6. Once you've used up all the mixture dry at 110'F for 8 hours. If the crackers aren't dry enough flip them over and dry for an additional 6-8 hours. You should open the dehydrator at the 6 hour mark and test them. If the gooeyness is gone then they are ready.
  • 7. I leave mine in a big bowl on the counter so we can sample them all the time. They are so good and good for you too.
  • 8. Enjoy!

I'm allergic to flax, so I can't eat these crackers. :(

These crackers are a bit too expensive to make. I can buy a whole box of crackers for the same price.

I followed the recipe exactly but my crackers turned out too dry. I think I over-dehydrated them.

These crackers are a bit bland for my taste. I think they need more seasoning.

I'm not a big fan of flax, but these crackers are actually really good! The tomato flavor is strong enough to mask the flax flavor.

These crackers are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're worth it! They're so much healthier and tastier than store-bought crackers.

I love the versatility of these crackers. You can add different herbs or spices to change the flavor, or you can top them with your favorite toppings.

These crackers are a great way to use up leftover flax meal. They're also a good source of fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.

These crackers are a delicious and healthy snack! I love the combination of flax and tomatoes, and the dehydrating process gives them a nice crunchy texture.
