Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a wonderful Veteran’s Day Weekend.
I’ve got another chia cracker recipe for you. These are a twist on my favorite version with soy sauce and garlic. They have a really light and refreshing flavor. Feel free to adjust the amounts or seasonings as you like.
Ingredients
- 1 cup chia seeds
- 2/3 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/3 cup sesame seeds
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 tsp dried dill weed
- 1/4 tsp coarse ground sea salt, or to taste
- 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
- 1/8-1/4 tsp lemon pepper, or to taste (can sub black pepper)
Directions
Preheat oven to 450 F. In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well.
Adjust seasonings to taste. After a couple minutes, the seeds will start to come together to form a gelatinous-like texture (thanks to the chia seeds):
When this happens spread on a greased baking sheet or Silpat and bake 15 minutes.
Remove from oven, and cut into desired shape (a pizza cutter is handy here). Flip them onto their opposite sides and bake another 15 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.
They are excellent served with a lemon-tahini dip!

Wow! I’ve never baked with chia seeds before, but these look delicious. It’s been a long time since I made homemade crackers, and I always forget how much more satisfying they are.
Totally agree. I haven’t done store-bought crackers since I found I could make them! You’ve got to try cooking with chia — so much fun! Because they develop that film around them, the texture basically becomes magical. 🙂
i never think of making crackers and you make it seem so easy! eager to try this, thanks becca!
Thanks Audrey! Hope you like this one! I think crackers are wayyyy easier than bread because you don’t have to worry so much about the texture – they’re supposed to be dense and dry. 😉
I was just talking to my mum last night about the delights of chia. I gave her a jar of them to try. Will have to pass on this recipe (after trying it first!). It looks spectacular!
Thanks! I’m glad you like the sound of it. 🙂 I love putting chia seeds in nearly everything. I like these crackers a lot, but my favorite are the ones made with soy sauce and garlic (recipe on the blog). Let me know what you think! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
I’ve been looking to make my own crackers, so your timing with this recipe is perfect! I’ll have to give it a try 🙂
Thanks Hannah! Would love to hear your thoughts. These are such hearty healthy crackers! I’m glad you like the sound of it. 🙂
