Oat Flour
Pulse about ½ cup +1 tbsp of rolled oats in a food processor till it turns into flour like consistency. This should make about ½ cup of oat flour.
Nut/seed mixture
Pulse together the peanuts, hemp seeds, sesame seeds and pumpkin seeds in the food processor till it reaches a sand like consistency.
Method:
- Prepare the oat flour and nut/seed mixture as mentioned above and place it in a large, wide bowl.
- Add the seasonings, salt and sugar and mix well.
- Add the oil to this mixture and add the cold water gradually while mixing with a spatula to form a cohesive mixture. Form it into a ball.
- Let rest for 5 minutes; Then place the flattened ball between two pieces of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to flatten the disc to 1/6 inch thickness.
- Sprinkle some parmesan cheese and pumpkin seeds and press lightly onto the flattened dough.
- Using a pizza cutter, cut into squares of mostly equal size(I have cut it into 1 inch squares).
- Use an offset spatula to move the crackers around so they’re all atleast half inch apart.
- Bake in a 325 F oven for 22 minutes until the bottom of the crackers are golden brown.
- Cool for 20 minutes before consuming.
