Quick and Easy Unleavened Crackers,

Quick and easy to make whenever you like. If you miss having some cheese and
crackers now and then, this is the recipe for you. Kids will love taking
these along to school as a nice healthy snack. The Flax Seeds are hardly
noticed in the final cracker, and add nutrition.
Step One: Grind ½ cup blond flax seeds ( for light looking crackers) in a
coffee grinder until very fine. Mix with ¾ cup cold water in a sauce pan
and gently heat until the mixture thickens, stirring occasionally. Takes
about 1 minute, mixture does not need to come to a boil. Set aside.
Blend well in a separate bowl
1 ¼ cups of potato starch ( not the same as potato flour)
1 cup of corn starch (or arrowroot flour)
1/4 cup of potato flour
Reserve 1 cup of this flour mixture to sprinkle on the counter to roll out
the dough, add to cracker dough if needed, and save for another batch.
To the rest of the flour mixture add:
¼ teaspoon Xanthan Gum
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sunflower seed oil
2 tablespoons honey
and all of the still slightly warm flax seed mixture. ( about ¾ cup)
Blend well and knead into a ball of dough, place some of the reserved flour
mixture on a counter top and knead to make a dough that you can roll out in
a thin sheet. If the mixture is too dry add a tablespoon of water at a time
until workable.
Roll the dough out as thinly as you can and then cut into squares, triangles
or cut out with rounds or any shape you like. Place crackers on a parchment
paper lined baking sheet and prick each cracker 2 or 3 times with a fork.
Bake in a pre-heated 350 F oven until crackers are puffy and the edges are
nicely browned.
