Instructions

Instructions are for 30 servings. Please modify as needed.

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 13"x18" (33x46 cm) baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Add all of the ingredients to a medium-sized bowl and stir to combine. Spread the mixture (about 1/8" thick or 3.1 mm) onto the parchment paper, sprinkle with sea salt, and bake for 20 minutes.
  3. Remove the crispbread from the oven, and carefully cut into desired form.
  4. Lower the heat to 275°F (135°C) and return the crispbread to the oven for another 30-40 minutes, or until lightly golden in color.
  5. Check the crispbread to make sure it is completely dry without any moist areas. Keep it in the oven with the door slightly open, until the oven is cool.

Tip

The sesame crispbread may also be made without cheese and you can replace the sunflower seeds with seeds such as pumpkin seeds.

    I made these today delicious, I thought I couldn’t live without crisps or crackers now I’ve found these enjoying with a wee garlic dip. Thank you. Can these be frozen?

    So glad you're enjoying them! Yes, I think they would freeze well.

    Does it matter if the sesame seeds are hulled or unhulled?

    Is psyllium powder Metamucil? Also, would I grind it up further in a spice grinder? Sorry if this is a silly question, but I'm new to all of this. These sound just perfect for snacking on something crisp and savory.

    Some unsweetened, unflavored Metamucil is psyllium. You can also buy it online as a specific ingredient.

    Nuts.com is a great source for raw and roasted plus organic if you want a lot of seeds and nuts plus flours, baking, chocolate,etc. They are sold by the pound, so if you want to make these kinds of crackers,etc., you will find what you need there, most likely...

    Hi Janice,
    How many crackers or part of the recipe is a single serving?

    For each recipe, divide the finished recipe by the number of servings you set the recipe. The default for this recipe is 30 servings, so you can portion out based on the finished dish for that number of servings.

    Vince, the recipe begins with the oven preheated to 350°F (175°C) as noted in #1 in the instructions.

    How long do they keep? As they have egg in them? Delicious by the way!

    They will stay good for quite a while, as they are baked. But it will taste best when they are freshly baked!

    Wondering how these compare to DD seed crackers--I guess I will just have to try them! I haven't tried a DD recipe yet that I didn't like.
  20. Adriana
    Really easy to make, very practical, good (not great) taste. You can spread stuff over the crackers, I do love how versatile they are.
    But overall, a good snack which I will make again.

    The recipe makes 30 servings, so if you break your batch into 30 roughly even sized pieces then yes, it's 1g per cracker.

    These are a staple for me! Love the taste. I use half black and half white sesame seals. I pre-toast them for more flavor when I buy them in bulk. I flip them over after the second 30 minutes to better crisp up the bottom. Use Maldon sea salt on top. I eat a couple with eggs in the morning so I don’t feel cheated not having toast. Making them is so quick. I will make these forever.

    These are AMAZING! Made them for the first time for lunch today with some tzatziki from the DD recipe. So crispy and crunchy I couldn't believe it! I followed the recipe exactly for this first time, but I'll definitely be looking at trying other cheeses/seasonings to experiment and see what flavours I can make. I did flip them as others have recommended just for the cooling stage, they didn't go any darker on the bottom but they were perfectly crispy. I'm so glad I can make crackers now!

    What can I say, but yet another wonderful seed cracker recipe delicious!!! and easy to make. Recipe comes out as stated.
    As with other keto seed cracker recipes I enjoy, so versatile, to eat with most foods and enjoy. Top with Avocado, cucumber, cheese, pate, whatever takes your choose, they are crunchy yet solid, and again, last about a month in air tight containers if not enjoyed and eaten before!
    Try and enjoy, thank you Diet Doctor.

    Should these be kept in fridge or just in an air tight container? Thanks!

    If you plan to eat them in a day or two, they should be fine on the counter. If you need them to last longer, the fridge is a good idea!

    We have not tested with that substitute, but it may work. If you give it a try, please let us know!

    I love these, I'm making them for the third time now. I've adjusted the egg to be 1.5 not 2 (first time I made them I added double the water, realised and poured it out - which removed some of the egg. The result was way crispier than when I made them properly so I'm experimenting) and I now mix up any kind of seed to the value of 250g. They really help me when I have a carb craving.

    I think it stinks that you have nutritional value behind a pay wall. : ( Have loved your recipes for years and this makes me sad.
