Flax Crackers


I was experimenting in the kitchen again and needed a chip like substitute: Flax Crackers was the answer to that dilemma. 
They turned out great so I offered some to my roommate who is a meat and potatoes kind of girl *(not a make weird healthy kinda food)  and her response was...  
"They taste like they are store bought!". Translation= this recipe is a keeper!
They actually are a great substitute for pita chips!


Pull from the cupboard:
  •  1 cup flaxsee meal
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 C water
  • 1/3 C Parmsan Cheese greated
What to do:
  1. Head oven to 400 deg. 
  2. Mix all ingredients together. 
  3. Cover pan with parchment paper.
  4. Spread mixture on parchment paper. 
  5. Place another piece of parchment on top of spread and roll out spread until about 1/8 inch thick. *Be sure spread is even other wise it won't bake properly.
  6.  Remove top sheet of parchment paper. 
  7. Bake for 15-18 min, or until centre is no longer soft. 
  8. Let cool and break into pieces.

Things I'd do next time:
  • DON'T add the salt!
  • Try different seasonings!
  • Pre-cut the spread so they are shaped more like crackers when you break them.
enjoy!
