Sesame Flax Crackers

sesame-crackers

Creamy, crunchy crackers! Mmmmm! Progress happens more by mistake than intention.

These crackers can be made in a food processor but a Vitamix machine will give a very creamy cracker that can support loads of butter, cheese or pate without falling apart. I made these crackers by accident by putting the Vitamix machine on high for a moment. I thought I had ruined the crackers but they turned out creamy and crunchy. Progress in my kitchen happens more often by mistake than intention.

2c organic sesame seeds
1/2c organic brown or yellow flax seeds
3c filtered water
2tsp sea salt
1 organic bird’s eye pepper (optional)

Soak the sesame and flax seeds overnight in the water and salt. In the morning, the mixture will have mostly congealed. In a Vitamix machine, grind the mixture at high speed for just a moment. The mixture should be quick thick.

With a tablespoon, scoop out some of the mixture and place it on the dehydrator sheet. Smooth down into rounded crackers or just let the crackers settle themselves. Don’t spread the mixture too thinly or the crackers will break. Dehydrate at a low temperature for 24 hours or until the crackers are dry. Store in a dark, dry place.
