SEEDS CRACKERS

Seeds are as healthy as nuts and have similar health benefits as nuts due to their content of nutrients. Seeds are good source of proteins, healthy fats, fibers, vitamins and minerals. Oily seeds also contain antioxidants. Some of healthy seeds are chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, watermelon seeds, flax seeds and sesame seeds. These seeds are considered as Super seeds.

All these crunchy seeds are enjoyed as a snack , sprinkled on salads, smoothies or used in baking and cooking to add texture and flavours.
Here I have prepared mix seeds crackers, which can be prepared in a jiffy with very less ingredients.

Soaking time: 30 minutes
Baking time: 25 minutes
Serves: 4 persons

Ingredients:
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup melon seeds
1/8 cup chia seeds
Salt to taste
1/4 – 1/2 cup water

Method:

1. In a bowl add chia seeds, salt and water, mix and let it sit covered for 30 minutes so chia seeds swell up.
2. After 30 minutes add amd mix remaining seeds into chia seeds and mix well.
3. Line your baking tray with silicone mate or baking paper or you can grease it with oil. Transfer the seeds mixture and spread it evenly.
4. Now in a preheated oven, bake this for 20-25 minutes on 150℃. Check after 15 minutes to make sure it’s not burning as temperature of oven varies. So check and bake until they are dry and brittle.
5. Remove from oven and let it cool completely. Then roughly break and store in an air tight jar. Healthy crackers can be enjoyed with any dip or can enjoy alone.
