These crunchy homemade gluten-free crackers are quick and easy to make and contain only a handful of ingredients. They go perfectly with your favourite dip, or pesto or can be enjoyed with your favourite topping as a healthy snack.
If you have been looking for a gluten-free cracker recipe that is not just made from seeds but tastes a bit more traditional then these are for you! Kids love these crackers too, so if you have little ones with a gluten intolerance then this recipe can give you some more options to add to lunchboxes.
These gluten-free crackers are a staple in our house. They are so easy to make we keep them in regular rotation around here. They only take 20 minutes to bake and voila you have a batch of 30 crackers done!
One of the things I love about making your own crackers and snacks is that you are avoiding lots of unwanted additives, MSG, salt, or hidden allergens that may be found in store-bought crackers. You can make a big batch of these for a fraction of the cost too.
Keep a batch to snack on, add to lunchboxes, or even better serve with your favourite dips when you have friends around for some nibbles and wine.
Additional Recipe Notes
- Once you have rolled the cracker dough out it can be quite hard to get the edges to look even. I wouldn’t spend too much time fussing about it, just pop it in the oven and even with some rough edges the crackers still taste good!
- You can mix up the seeds in the recipe if you prefer and use 1 cup of flaxseed or 1 cup of chia seeds, just ensure you keep the ratios the same.
- Ensure you leave the crackers to completely cool before breaking into squares or they may crumble.
- These crackers may be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
What toppings do you suggest for these crackers?
These crackers are very versatile and go well with any dip or spread or a variety of toppings. Hummus, avocado, tomato, sliced boiled egg, pesto, fresh basil, sliced olives, tuna, marmite, or your preferred nut butters are all good options.
Other topping ideas:
Roasted Butternut Squash and Turmeric Hummus
