This is a great receipe for making crackers that look great! They wowed my friends. 😉

You can add grated cheese to these crackers and add whole flaxseed on top for “decoration”. The recipe is very flexible.

Ingredients
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 Tbps Olive or canola oil Tastier oil makes tastier crackers!
  • 2 Tbps Water Depending on the flour I use, this liquid amount varies a lot!
  • 1 Cup flour Try different flours for different textures. As long as I have some all purpose flour, I find I can use almost anything
  • 1/4 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Cup Flaxseed Can also use Sesame seeds
  • Course Salt For sprinkling
Servings: +
Instructions
  1. Preheat over to 350F
  2. Pulse the flaxseed in a coffee or spice grinder until coarsely chopped.
  3. In a medium bowl, stif together the egg, oil and water. Add the flour, salt and flaxseed and stir until you have a stiff dough. Add more liquid if necessary.
  4. Pinch off 1" balls of dough and roll them out on a countertop back and forth in one direction as thin as you can. Don't flour the countertop - this works much better when they can cling to the surface.
  5. If you want to have something on the surface (seeds, salt) then roll the toppings into the crackers at this point.
  6. Peel the crakers off the counter and place on an ungreased baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden and crisp
