Delicious and Nutritious – Spelt & Flaxseed Crackers Recipe

Highlights of the Spelt and Flaxseeds Crackers Recipe Ingredients:

Flaxseeds:

Flaxseeds are a popular ingredient known for their high fibre content and beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. They add a subtle nutty flavour and also contribute to the texture and binding properties of the recipe.

Flaxseeds are also rich in lignans, phytochemicals that can help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.

Wholemeal spelt flour:

Wholemeal spelt flour is a type of flour made from grinding the whole grain of spelt. It is rich in fibre, B vitamins, and minerals. It adds a nutty flavour and contributes to the structure and texture of the crackers.

It’s also easy to digest (spelt is highly water-soluble and considered to be easy to digest) and has a subtle nutty and sweet flavour.

Poppy seeds:

Poppy seeds are a popular ingredient used for their unique flavour and texture. They add a subtle crunch to the spelt crackers and create a visually appealing appearance.

To make these crackers, simply soak 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds in 6 tablespoons of water for 10 minutes, then mix with wholemeal spelt flour, salt, hot water, and olive oil to form a dough. Roll it out thin, sprinkle it with poppy seeds, and bake until golden and crispy.

The combination of these two ingredients is a great way to get a healthy snack that will keep you feeling full for hours. They are also high in protein, making them a great choice for vegetarians and athletes.

Whether you’re a vegan, exploring a plant-based diet, or simply looking for tasty snack options, these crackers are sure to satisfy your cravings.
