Rice Crackers Deluxe from scratchers - an Atanfriendly Guest blog

So Gilly and I were eating some crackers the other day, of the rice variety, and as we happened upon the ingredients we decided it should be easy peasy to make ourselves..So that's what we did. Yum yum. And it turned out so good we decided it would be good enough for the big time: Victoria(n perspective) & Daniel's Love, Life & Food for Thought Blog! So after we used our masterful hacking skills we made it on here, to share this with all of you lovely people. This is a great intro-to-cooking recipe, so if you aren't too comfortable in the kitchen no worries, YOU CAN DO IT!

Here's what you need:

1 1/2 cups brown rice flour

2/3 cup cooked brown rice

1/2 tablespoons flax seeds

1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 cup olive oil (but you can use coconut, safflower, etc.)

1/3 to 1/2 cup water

First, preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Next you'll need to lightly oil large baking sheet. In bowl or food processor, mix flour, rice, flax seeds, salt, and oil until combined. Add water a little bit at a time until dough holds together. Plop the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times to form a ball. Press or roll dough on baking sheet to about 1/8 thick or possibly a little thinner (rolling pins fit great on our pans, hope they do for you as well). Then with a butter knife, score into 1 1/2-inch squares.

Lastly, throw the pans in the oven for a 20 to 30 minute bake, or until bottoms are golden brown. Be sure to Cool them off before removing from pan (it's tempting to eat them right away but they'll burn you good).

These taste great with some home-made hummus as featured in these pics;)

ENJOY!!

(next project may be to make honey rice crackers to be served with brie and strawberries, or with goat and mangoes?)
