Almond, Seeds and Psyllium Crackers
Cook this Almond, Seeds, and Psyllium Crackers, they only have 6 main ingredients, no wheat flour, no sugars, no low-quality fats, no binders, no preservatives.
Choose your favorite spices and seasonings to give them the flavor you desire, it will be the perfect touch.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup raw almonds
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds
2 tbsp golden flaxseeds
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp psyllium husk (provides soluble fiber and is very filling)
1 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 cup warm water
DIRECTIONS:
1. Add the almonds and seeds to your food processor, grind everything together.
2. Add the spices and pulse a few more times to mix.
3. Transfer the mixture of dry ingredients to a bowl and gradually add the warm water. You may not need all of it.
4. Knead while gradually incorporating the water. When you've formed a compact ball, do not add more water.
5. Let the dough ball rest for about 15 minutes to allow the seeds (flax and chia) to hydrate and gelatinize; this will be the "glue" for the dough. Remember that these crackers don't contain egg or fat, and this is a way to bind the dough together.
6. Divide the dough into two parts and place it on a parchment paper. With another piece of paper on top, press it first with your hands and then with a rolling pin. Be patient, do it gradually, and if you see the edges separating, manually join them again.
7. Use a knife to mark the shape of the crackers before baking.
8. Bake at 350ºF (180ºC) in a preheated oven for 15 minutes.
9. Remove the dough from the oven, trim the edges to prevent burning, and bake the remaining portion for an additional 5 minutes.
Your crackers are ready. Let them cool and enjoy. Don't forget to savor the edges – they're delicious!
Freshly made, they are very crunchy, but after a few hours, not so much. If you want to restore their crispiness, put them in the oven for 5 or 10 minutes at 320ºF (160ºC). You don't want to cook them, just remove the moisture. For me, this step is not necessary; I like them as they are, but it can be done without any issues.
