How I Make Sprouted Seed Crackers Recipe

Step 1 Prep the oven

Set oven to a very low temperature between 105 and 118 F if possible. Low and slow helps preserve nutrients and gives that classic cracker texture.

If your oven runs hotter, just crack the door slightly to let heat escape. I have done this plenty of times.

Step 2 Blend the mixture

Add everything except the final sprinkle of salt to a food processor or high speed blender.

Pulse until combined but not smooth. You want texture. Visible seed bits make better crackers.

Step 3 Shape the dough

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Scoop the mixture onto the center and spread it thin and even. Thinner crackers get crispier. I like shaping mine into a rectangle so they break into neat squares.

Sprinkle a little extra salt on top.

Step 4 Slow bake

Place in the oven for one hour.

Remove and score the surface with a butter knife. This makes them easy to break later.

Return to oven for about two more hours.

Carefully peel crackers off parchment and place directly on the baking sheet.

Bake another hour, then break along the scored lines and flip pieces.

Continue baking, checking every 30 minutes, until fully crisp.

Step 5 Cool completely

Let crackers cool all the way before storing. They crisp up more as they cool.

Tips for Perfect Crunch

• Spread mixture thin and even
• Do not puree the seeds
• Low temperature is key
• Flip halfway for even drying
• Cool fully before storing

If they bend, they need more time. If they snap, they are ready.

Flavor Ideas

Once you make these once, it is fun to switch things up.

• Add sesame seeds for nuttier flavor
• Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning on top
• Mix in nutritional yeast for a cheesy vibe
• Add chili flakes for heat

How We Eat Them at Home

These rarely last long in my house.

We pile them with

• Soft cheeses
• Hummus
• Guacamole
• Egg salad
• Nut butters for snacks

They are sturdy enough for spreads and perfect for lunchboxes.

Storage and Meal Prep

Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

They stay crisp about a week, sometimes longer if humidity is low.

Great for

• Make ahead snacks
• Road trips
• Charcuterie boards
• Quick bites between activities
