Hi! I am super new to this website and raw in general...so forgive me if this is kind of a no-brainer..
I want to make some flax crackers, because I have a giant container of ground flax in my freezer that needs to be used up, but I have a very small amount of whole flaxseeds so I prefer not to use them in the recipe. Most of the recipes for flax crackers I have seen call for the whole seeds... can I just soak the flax meal and use it in the same way, spread the goo out on a sheet and dehydrate it, without any whole seeds? like, if I were to make just plain flax crackers this way, with just the meal...would that work? could it still come out crunchy?
thanks!

Right, I know that many use ground flax, but I want to know if for example in a recipe like the "Amazingly Easy Flax Crackers", (http://www.goneraw.com/node/11440) which uses all whole seeds, I can use ground in the same way.
Can anyone help me out???
awesome, thank you! Now another question: since I have pre-ground flax, I won't be grinding the seeds themselves. Can I use the same measurements for ground as I can whole? I know that they supposedly fluff up a lot when grinded yourself, so would I need to take that into account when using a recipe? I know they're all about experimentation, it's just that I wouldn't want to use waste a lot of ingredients by adding too much water, or something like that.
thanks!
