These whole wheat crackers are a great way to get your daily dose of fiber. They're made with a blend of whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and flaxseed meal, and they're packed with flavor thanks to a savory blend of garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. The crackers are also low in fat and calories, making them a healthy snack or side dish.
I've always been a fan of whole wheat crackers, but I've never been able to find a recipe that I really love. Most of the recipes I've tried have been either too bland or too dry. So I decided to create my own recipe, and I'm so glad I did! These crackers are the perfect balance of flavor and texture. They're crispy on the outside, but soft and chewy on the inside. And they're packed with fiber, so they're a healthy snack or side dish.
Prep time: 15 | Cook time: 12 | Serves: 12
Ingredients
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup flaxseed meal
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup water
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, flaxseed meal, baking powder, baking soda, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
Add the olive oil and water and mix until the dough comes together.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces.
Roll out each piece of dough into a thin circle.
Place the crackers on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
Let the crackers cool on a wire rack before serving.
Why It Works
The combination of whole wheat flour, rolled oats, and flaxseed meal gives these crackers a great texture and flavor.
The savory blend of garlic powder, onion powder, and salt adds depth of flavor.
The crackers are baked at a high temperature, which gives them a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
