These crackers are amazing. I made them today. I’m not a vegan but I will add this recipe to my box of keepers. Thank you so much for sharing this delicious cracker with us.

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

I’m so glad you love them and they turned out great for you! Thank you so much for letting me know and for giving them a try! Enjoy!

Oh my word.....I made these and they are SOOOOOO good. I'm never buying plant based crackers at the store again. The hardest part was trying to get the mixture to spread really thin and cutting them (mostly due to the pumpkin seeds). I wish I didn't have to cook them for 50 minutes but man it was worth it. Thank you so much for this recipe as I've never found another plant based cracker recipe that I liked and this is also oil free!!! I'm definitely going to be making these again.

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Oh good I’m so glad you liked them in the end! The larger seeds can be a little annoying to cut through (sometimes you have to slice down on them instead of dragging something like a pizza cutter through them… even though I usually just pat the cracker back into place if it pulls and it still bakes up nicely). Hopefully the more you make them the quicker they will be to spread too. Thank you so much for letting me know they were worth it and thank you for giving them a try! Enjoy!

[@chrisfowler7934]

First Time to your KZbin channel this morning! 2 hours later my husband and I are over the top thrilled with these delicious crackers! Yummy is an understatement!! Your video was easy to follow, and I did not have any trouble with the ingredients or directions. Great savings to the pocketbook and no questionable ingredients that comes with many store bought. I went to your website to check out all you have there, and I am excited to start following you! Thank you for you and your husband's hard work, attention to detail in creating these recipes, videos and website.

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

We’re so glad that you loved the crackers and are excited to find some more recipes you love on our blog and channel!

I used chickpea flour instead of the oats. Worked fine and they were yummy.

These are great soaked with soy salt then crumbled on top of a salad! Great topping.

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Oh interesting. I’ve actually never heard of soy salt. Is it actually crystallized soy sauce?

[@DianeNalini]

Oh my, these are going to be so much better than my plain old homemade flax crackers. I will be trying these this week. I love that you always do cost comparisons to store bought… in these days with rising cost of living, it is heartening to know how much we are saving by making it ourselves.

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Oi Kathryn! Hi Brian! Superb and simple recipe, absolutely love it. I’ve never tried these, you’ve completely sold it! I’m forever buying these and they are not cheap here in the UK 🇬🇧 Just on holiday in Madeira and learning the language! Keep up the great work, love the editing and stimulating videos. Tchau, James 😎 🇵🇹

Ola! Have fun learning the language. I still need help in that department. Spending more time there would definitely speed up my learning. I’m glad you’re back there again so soon! And I’m glad these ones look good to you! They are definitely cheaper than buying them here too.

[@annierobo3414]

Such an easy and great recipe for crackers thank you they turned out pretty good although I would probably sprinkle mine with a little more salt and dried herbs next time before putting in the oven to add more flavour.I used quinoa flakes instead of oats as not gluten free in NZ where I live,I also threw in some dried cranberries to replicate the store brought ones we have over here that are very expensive for like 8 crackers☺️👍

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Oh great! Your additions and subs sound delicious. I’m so glad you were able to adapt them and make them your own. Thank you for giving them a try and letting me know cranberries worked out well because that’s something I’ve thought about adding in for a sweeter variation 👍🏼 so glad you were able to save a bit of 💰too 👏

[@annierobo3414]

@@TastyThriftyTimely Yes definitely worth trying for a bit of sweetness.Will be my go to recipe now 💞

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

@@annierobo3414 that’s lovely to hear! And I’ll definitely try cranberries next time I make them!

[@shahdalabsi9399]

What are seeds/nuts I can use instead of pumpkin and sunflower seeds?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

You could use more of any one of the other ingredients (more oats, sesame seeds, etc). Sliced or blanched almonds would probably work as would any nut if you chop it small enough. You could add in chopped dried fruit that you like too 👍🏼 as long as you have enough ground flaxseed and/or chia seed to hold the crackers together and you chop nuts or dried fruit small enough, it should definitely work! Let me know what you try!

[@kellylearned9857]

I'm excited to try this. Thanks. *Do you know if I can I substitute with seal cut oats?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Hmmm I’m thinking the steel cut oats won’t have enough time to soften. Perhaps if you soak them overnight or partially cook them that could work. I just wouldn’t want them to be little rocks in your crackers!

[@darrenmcdonnell8842]

50 minutes or 15 minutes?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

50 minutes turning the pans and scoring the crackers halfway through at 25 minutes 👍🏼

[@haydehabdolahian7691]

I would do almond flour instead oat less carb 😏 1/4 c almond have 6 g of carb and oat have 29 g 😢

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Yes you can definitely do that 👍🏼 I’ve made versions of these where I have replaced the full 1/2 cup oats with 1/2 cup almond flour and the mixture is quite a bit more wet but still crisps up perfectly in the oven. You could do 1/4 cup almond flour and 1/4 cup extra ground flaxseed as well which will absorb more water and be closer to the same texture for spreading on the baking sheets.

[@datchess1]

What can i use to substitute oats?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

You can use more seeds in place of the oats (I would use at least 1/4 cup ground flax or chia to help the crackers bind and then the other 1/4 cup can be seeds of your choice). You can also use almond flour (again you can sub the whole amount with almond flour or do half almond flour half ground flax or chia seed). Others have mentioned using psyllium husk in place of the oats but I’ve never tried that one. I hope this helps!

[@jalaburhan]

Hii, i made the recipe but it was sticking in the parchment paper. Any idea why that happened ? It stayed for 1 hour in the oven and still sticked to the paper. It doesnt look like yours perfectly cut and was smooth when you pull them off from the par paper. Appreciate your feedback! Could be too much water ?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Hmmm it was an issue of too much water the crackers would probably still be a little soft and not crisp up for you. Are you sure your paper isn’t coated with anything? The only time I’ve heard of people having trouble with sticking is with a coated wax paper. If you do use a bit of oil in your cooking you could brush a thin layer of oil (or use a cooking spray) on the paper next time. I’ve never had to do that with parchment paper or my silicone mats though. I’m sorry they stuck for you!

[@jalaburhan]

Thank you so much. Probably it is because of a lot of water. And the problem i left it for 1 hour and still its only crispy from the edges but the middle it was damp. Thanks for answering.

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

@jalaburhan ok that must be it. 1 1/4 cup or 295 ml water should work but if you make any substitutions and the ingredients don’t soak up all the water in the soaking time you can pour off the excess. Baking at 325 F or 163 c for 50 min should dry them out. Leaving them in the hot (but turned off oven) if they are still a little soft after the baking time is another way to dry them out further. I hope you have better luck next time if you try them again!

[@cindyloeffler173]

No need for the oats especially Quick oats just use All Seeds

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

Yes as long as you have enough chia and/or ground flaxseed the crackers will bind with all seeds. Using almond flour in place of the oats also works!

[@PatriciaBrooksCourageCatalyst]

Good to know. Im about to make these and don't have oats.

I would like to know, how many calories does one cracker have?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

I haven’t focused on calculating the nutrition info for my recipes but I quickly punched this one into a free app I have called “Cronometer”. It estimates 165 calories, 6.9g protein, 4.1g carbs, and 11.7g fat for a serving of 10 crackers. My husband and I both tend to only have 5-6 per serving because they are really dense with protein and fibre and quite satiating. 👍🏼

[@janborkowski6659]

@@TastyThriftyTimelythank you for the calorie and nutrient breakdown. I’ll put that in my fitness pal app so I has a better count when I eat them.

[@himaninautiyal9761]

Temperature and time required?

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

I bake them at 325 degrees F for 50 minutes. Half way through (at 25 minutes) I take the pans out and score the crackers with a pizza cutter into square shapes. Then I return the pans to the oven for the remaining 25 minutes. I have chaptered the video to make it easy to skip ahead to the section where I bake the crackers. You can find the chapter markers in the description and baking the crackers begins at 1:42 👍🏼

How to make in microwave d on Indian gas

[@TastyThriftyTimely]

I’m sorry, I’m not sure how you would do this as I haven’t tried it myself. I have just found some recipes for similar crackers made in the microwave though that suggest you could heat them on the parchment paper for about 4 minutes until they are dry? It seems like smaller batches of 6 or so crackers at a time might be best. Let me know if you do try it and how it works out for you!
