Flax Seed Cracker Recipe


I have often been tempted to eat crackers made of wheat, but I can't take that. So after months of trying different things I found a way to make crackers. After mixing the ingredients below I spoon it on to the plastic interior linings of my food dehydrator . Spreading the mixture as thin as I can to make the drying of it as even as can be and dried as quickly as possible. The recipe can be added to as in using different spices such as caraway or sea salt sprinkled onto the surface of the mixture after it has been spread onto the plastic plates
Flax seed crackers

In Magic bullet blend:
One small tomato
Red pepper
Onion
Garlic
Sea Salt to taste
Cloves of Garlic to taste 
Filtered water to fill to the top of the magic bullet container.

In a large bowl mix
one cup ground flax seeds
2 cups whole flax seeds

Pour the vegetable mixture over the flax seed mixture and stir.
The ground seeds will absorb the fluid rather quickly so work quickly in the spreading it.

Dry in food dehydrator at 135 degrees for approximately 4 hours. It varies as to the thickness of what has been spread and how many layers of the drier are being used during the drying. Some driers have many layers. Open Country has a line of driers that are inexpensive and work well. However they have no on off switch and no timer. But a timer can be added from a hardware store.

Enjoy with guacamole, or spread with olive oil and sea salt. 
A sweeter version of the cracker can be made by using less veggies, more water and stevia to sweeten.
