Yield
Two dehydrator trays
Ingredients
- 1 cup pecans (or walnuts)
- 1 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 medium tomato
- 1 cup onion (chopped)
- 3 tablespoons flaxseed
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
Recipe Directions
- 1. Add all ingredients to food processor. Process well, until quite well blended but still chunky. 40 seconds or so.
- 2. Spread onto two dehydrator sheets. Use parchment paper or Teflex sheets. (For the love of God, never use waxed paper!)
- 3. Dehydrate for 1 hour at 115. After one hour score the crackers with a knife so that they’ll be easier to separate later. Dehydrate for another 6 hours at 105. After 6 hours flip crackers and remove parchment paper or Teflex sheets. Dehydrate for one more hour at 105 until dry and cracker-like!
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianRaw flax cracker recipes... Yeah, I know, there are a zillion of recipes for raw flax dehydrator crackers online. But how many of them are actually really good standby recipes that you want to make again and again? For me, this is my favorite raw flax cracker recipe -- hands down.
What makes this recipe special? As always, I like how there aren't very many ingredients in it. But somehow, I think because of the walnuts, these crackers have a very nice, hearty, satisfying weight to them.
I like to eat one or two of these crackers when I'm feeling as though I need a raw flax cracker recipe that'll really fill me up... and that tastes great, too.
Do not use a high-speed blender for this recipe. A food processor will work much better. Dehydrating times can vary wildly depending on the season, the humidity and your dehydrator. The best thing to do is hang out at home and check on them every couple of hours until you get the hang of making crackers. Try not to nibble too much on these raw flax crackers before they're done!
Note: If you don't have a tomato, you can use an apple + 1/4 cup water instead of the tomato.

Marko you can try chia seeds. They react pretty much the same as flax seeds

Is there something I can do instead of the tomato or the apple plus water? I have no tomato, but I wonder if the apple won't make them too sweet and add more sugar content than I would want. Thanks! Sound wonderful.

Hi Angie, red pepper would work here. The apple is fine - it won't make it too sweet.

Raw flax cracker recipe
Hi. Borrowed an Excalibur and made this recipe for the first time. No tomatoes so added tomato paste and a few olives. Thought the mix was a bit dry so added some coconut oil. Crackers didn't 'crack' and were still moist, but absolutely yummy. Will leave out the coconut oil next time. Thanks for the recipe!

Isha, you are very creative! I'm glad the crackers turned out for you! :)

I am going to soak my nuts over night as I always do. I will start up the process tomorrow morning. Thank you for an inspiration of a ingredients combination.

Could I use extra walnuts and sunflower seeds to replace the almonds?

I made these this morning and they are currently in the dehydrator. I was wondering about soaking the almonds but since the recipe did not say to do so I did not soak them. However, I did not have a tomato so threw in a handful of cherry tomatoes and 1/2 orange bell pepper. I must say the mix tasted wonderful, couldn't keep from tasting it. The mix seemed a little dry but did stick together so we will see how they turn out. Soaking the nuts would probably solve the moisture issue. We do not eat onions so that also was omitted and would make a moisture difference.
Guess I should ask our Rawterian what she thinks? Thanks for the wonderful recipes.
