    Spicy Seed Crackers (gluten-free)

    Aug 6, 2019 • Snacks

    Gluten Free Spicy Seed Crackers. Homemade cracker recipe! Easy and fun to make.

    I’m really trying to buy less packaged snacks!

    Not that I buy a lot, but we do like the Simple Mills and Mary’s Gone crackers… as well as popcorn and granola sometimes. But in my efforts to make more homemade snacks instead of purchasing them, I came up with these crunchy and Spicy Seed Crackers that are so fun and easy to make!

    I thought about turning them into seed cycling crackers, but the point of seed cycling is to eat the seeds raw to benefit from the nutrients… and these crackers are baked to a crisp perfection. So these are not for seed cycling, these are for a fun and healthy snack to eat alongside some veggies and hummus, or your favorite dip.

    spicy seed crackers recipe. pumpkin seeds (pepitas), sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, chia seeds. nut free! super simple and fun to make. #glutenfree #crackers #seeds

    To make these savory crackers, you’ll need pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds and flaxseeds! Along with yummy add-ins like nutritional yeast, salt and pepper, crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick, coconut oil and hot water.

    All you do is grind the seeds in the food processor, add in the spices and grind again, then transfer to a bowl and mix in the coconut oil and hot water. Once the mixture has thickened up, you line a baking sheet with parchment paper then add the mixture to the middle of the paper. Get another sheet of parchment paper and push down on the mixture to spread it out into a thin and even layer on the whole baking sheet. The thinner the better and the crispier the cracker! Then you bake for 45 minutes or so, allow it to cool and then break into pieces!

    I truly adore these cracker gems and I hope you do too!

    Description

    Crunchy and savory homemade gluten-free crackers that are so fun and easy to make!


    Ingredients

    Scale

    1/2 cup raw sesame seeds (white or black)

    1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds

    1/2 cup raw pepitas (pumpkin seeds)

    1/2 cup flaxseed

    1/4 cup chia seeds

    1/4 cup nutritional yeast

    1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

    1 teaspoon sea salt

    3/4 teaspoon black pepper

    1/2 teaspoon cayenne (optional; for extra spice)

    1/3 cup melted coconut oil

    3/4 cup hot water


    Instructions

    Preheat oven to 340 degrees F.

    In a food processor, add the sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, pepitas, flaxseed and chia seeds. Blend until crumbly! Next, add in the nutritional yeast, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper and cayenne. Blend again until well combined.

    Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Stir in the melted coconut oil. Then stir in the hot water and allow the mixture to thicken to be more soupy than crumbly. If it’s too crumbly, add some more hot water.

    Once the mixture has thickened, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and add the mixture to the middle of the paper. Get another sheet of parchment paper and push down on the mixture to spread it out into a thin and even layer on the whole baking sheet. The thinner the better and the crispier the cracker!

    Bake for 45-50 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven and allow it to cool.

    Then, break into pieces and enjoy!

      They don’t seem to hold together. Is there a binding agent missing from the recipe? Very tasty but essentially just crumble

      Have you tried to make these without the coconut oil?

        I haven’t! You could try but I like it to help hold them together more.

what are you guys up to today?! I’m installing our new shower filter that I can’t wait to share about, running errands, cleaning, thinking about dinner, the usual Sunday things 💗💗💗
    HANDLE NAME CHANGE!! I’ve been wanting to do th HANDLE NAME CHANGE!!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while as a fresh start with all the changes to my “brand” in the last year. It feels right to just use my name 😀 (fun fact: I haven’t taken my hubbys last name yet because of business paperwork that I’m too lazy to figure out 😅 name changes are complicated) 

@theglowingfridge started out of my love for the plant based lifestyle but so much has changed in the last 9 years and I’ve been itching to update. Nothing else will change and my blog will still remain as is, if you still use my recipes and such. Love you all and thank you for supporting me through all these changes 🤍🤍🤍

    what I eat for gut health, happy hormones, healthy what I eat for gut health, happy hormones, healthy skin & hair, and to be a patient mama 🖤

When my blood sugar is on a nasty rollercoaster, I’m not the best mama that I know I should be for my girl. I’m more irritable and short. So I prioritize protein, healthy fats and carbs at each meal. This helps me feel balanced and provides energy to play and chase after her all day! I need all the fuel I can get.

- collagen king coffee ☁️ 
- leftover homemade chicken fried rice 
- swedish meatballs & gf pasta & green beans
- my homemade tahini maple cookies (I have a reel with the recipe!!) but I’m truly addicted 🍪 
- always sipping on @gerolsteiner_usa 💧

    I don’t get ready everyday… But when I do I f I don’t get ready everyday…

But when I do I feel better, duh! And more confident. More productive. Happier in general. Of course I have super lazy days but I try to get myself together because I’m more likely to leave the house, you know mamas? I hate when people ask “why do you get ready if you’re home all day”.. 

I’m sharing different content like this because I feel like it and don’t want to be stuck in a box 😀

    I mean if you drink it everyday… It should be o I mean if you drink it everyday…

It should be organic, mold-free, tested for mycotoxins and taste delicious, etc. King coffee goes a step further with a therapeutic dose of reishi spores, the most powerful and potent part of reishi mushroom! Most other companies use the lucidum part of reishi, in case you’re wondering 👑

Want more info? DM me “king” and I’ll send you the deets 🤍🤍🤍

    passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹 I passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹

I have many more passes too.. extreme diets, too many supplements, gluten, juice cleanses, eating too fast and not chewing enough.. the list goes on!

Gut healing takes a multi-faceted approach and it’s never just one supplement to heal or one thing to do.

It takes time, patience and grace! And working alongside a practitioner you feel called to 🙏🏼
