Ingredients

Dry Grocery

Flax Seed

1 cup

Chia Seeds

2 tablespoons

Oregano Herbs

0.5 teaspoons

Salt

1 teaspoon

Other

Pepper

0.5 teaspoons

Water

0.5 cups

Directions

Preheat the oven at 180 degree c. Prepare a baking tray by greasing a little oil. This will help to remove crackers after baking. In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.

Slowly add the 1/2 cup of water, mashing it into the dry ingredients to make dough.

Scoop the mixture onto the greased baking tray. Now lightly grease a rolling pin and evenly roll out the mixture into a sheet. Even out the thicker edges by hand and then smoothen the surface. The sheet should be rolled out too thick. For a crunchy cracker, keep the thickness thin.

Using a sharp knife, score the cracker to desired shape. This will help to break into pieces after baking.

Bake in the oven for 20-30 min at 180 degrees, remove from the oven and let it cool down completely in a baking tray.

Then break the cracker. Serve or store in an airtight container upto 2 weeks.
