Easy gluten-free everything bagel crackers made with a combination of seeds are a healthy snack to get you through your day.
I love nuts and seeds, and also crackers. I eat some type of cracker multiple times a week, usually with cheese, but sometimes with hummus, peanut butter, or pesto. It depends on what I have on hand.
While I don’t follow a strict gluten-free diet (I’m not giving up bread. Sorry, not sorry.) I do like a lot of gluten-free crackers. Probably because, unlike bread or pasta, crackers don’t need to be soft or squishy. Hard and crunchy is a must for a cracker, not so much for a dinner roll or sandwich bread.
Because I’m always experimenting in the kitchen, I have a pantry full of various gluten-free flours. I also have bags and bags of nuts, seeds, spices, and everything in between.
One of the gluten-free flours I have on hand is cassava. If you’re not familiar, this is a root vegetable that makes a pretty decent wheat-free flour. I’ve used it to make tortillas, naan, and quick bread with much success, and it works really well for crackers. Like these homemade everything bagel crackers.
One thing to note about cassava flour is that while it is gluten-free, it’s not really low in carbs, so it’s definitely not keto-friendly. This recipe doesn’t use much, however, so you may be able to fit it in depending on your personal preferences.
If any of the seeds you’re using are salted, you may want to reduce the amount of salt in the recipe. Keep in mind that your everything bagel seasoning has salt too.
These are great on their own, but also really good for dipping — hummus, french onion, green goddess — whatever you like, they’ll probably work.
Gluten-Free Everything Bagel Crackers
Easy homemade everything bagel crackers are the perfect healthy snack, especially if you follow a gluten-free diet.
Equipment
- Pot
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup pepitas
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons ground flax
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons cassava flour
- 1/2-1 teaspoon sea salt salt
- Everything bagel seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 13x9 sheet pan with parchment.
- Put 1 cup water in a pot and bring to a boil.
- Combine all of the ingredients except the everything bagel seasoning in a bowl and stir to combine.
- When the water boils, add the seeds and turn the heat off. Stir and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Spread the mixture onto your prepared baking sheet in a thin even layer. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, until top is dry and edges are brittle. If it’s really flexible after 40 minutes, turn the oven off and leave the pan in the oven for 5-10 minutes.
- Let cool completely and break into pieces.
Notes
Storing leftovers: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
Variations: You can add hemp seeds or whole flax seeds to the mix, but keep the proportion of chia seeds and ground flax — this is what gels the mixture together. You can also use any seasoning blend you like as well — pizza seasoning, za’atar, or even just seasoned salt work well
