Smoked Paprika Seeded Crackers (gf)

-

Packed with a fabulous selection of seeds and flavours, these crackers are super-easy to put together and cook to a gorgeous crispness.

¼ cup pumpkin seeds ¼ cup sunflower seeds 1 teaspoon fennel seeds ¼ cup quinoa 2 tablespoon­s sesame seeds 1 tablespoon flaxseed (linseed)

1 tablespoon each poppy seeds and sesame seeds

1 teaspoon smoked paprika ¼ teaspoon chilli flakes 2 tablespoon­s quinoa flour

¼ teaspoon baking powder

¼ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

1½ tablespoon­s chia seeds 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 tablespoon maple syrup

1 tablespoon melted coconut oil

150ml water

extra sea salt for sprinkling, optional Preheat the oven to 160°C. Grease a large, flat baking tray and line with baking paper.

Place the first 6 ingredient­s in a food processor and process until the larger seeds are roughly broken up. If the pieces are too large, the crackers will fall apart.

Tip into a medium bowl, add all the remaining ingredient­s and stir together until well combined. Leave for 20 minutes for the mixture to thicken (it will still be quite wet).

Tip onto the tray and even it out a bit with a fork. Top with another sheet of baking paper and roll out until ½cm thick, neatening up the edges so they don’t catch and burn.

Use a sharp knife to score into the desired size crackers. Bake for about 35 minutes until a good golden brown and crisp. Re-cut along the scored lines then leave to cool. MAKES ABOUT 18 CRACKERS DEPENDING ON THEIR SIZE.
