Instructions

Instructions are for 30 servings. Please modify as needed.

Mix together all ingredients (grate the cheese coarsely), and spread out on parchment paper on a baking sheet.
Sprinkle sea salt on top.
Set the oven to 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes.
Carefully cut the crackers into the desired form.
Lower the heat to 280°F (140°C) and let sit for another 40 minutes.
Remove the crispbread and make sure it's dry all all the way through. I usually let it stay in the oven with the door slightly open until the oven is cool.

Tip!

The sesame crispbread may also be made without cheese and you can replace the sunflower seeds with things like pumpkin seeds.

These are so delicious and so easy!! Nice crispy texture for cheese and crackers that I’ve been on keto. I upped the amount of sesame seeds and used xantham gum instead of psyllium husk, cape out great. I think next time I’ll try Parmesan cheese instead of mozzarella just to give them a little more flavor.

I really like these crackers. I stored them in an airtight container but am finding that they are losing their crispness. Any suggestions?

Did you use the same amount of xantham gum as you would have used for the psyllium husk powder?

You can put them in a toaster or oven for a few minutes and they should crisp back up.

I am in Australia and all ingredients are in Woolworths. First batch in oven and can't wait for my first bite. They look and smell amazing.

Just made these as per recipe and they’re amazing. The mixture needs to be spread really thinly. This was tricky but I laid a sheet of grease proof paper of the top and used a rolling pin and then peeled it off with ease. The previous tip to use a pizza cutter after the first 20 minutes worked a treat too.

I absolutely love these but I found that the cheese appears and tastes burnt, now I did use grated mozzarella so i wonder if its that. Can I use without or will a different type be better, they are scrummy !!!!

You may just need to cook them for a shorter time than the recipe calls for.

I love these! I was really missing something crispy to put meats, cheeses and spreads on. I used the method of cutting with a pizza cutter and that worked really well. I stored mine in a metal cookie tin for two weeks and they were still crispy and tasty. Just made my second batch!

OMG! So delicious. I swapped 1/4 cup of sesame seeds for poppy seeds, pumpkin seeds instead of sunflower, seasoned with onion powder and garlic salt instead of regular salt and parmesan cheese! So yum with gooey French triple brie or avocado. Thanks for the delicious recipes. Keep 'em coming. Zoe

Portion sizes for all recipes need to be clearer. I followed the ingredients for 7 so does that mean 7 equal portions equals 1g carb in each?

I cut the 7 serving recipe into about 16 1” squares. How much would one serving be?

Yes, if you scaled the recipe to make 7 servings, then you would divide your dish into 7 portions and each would be 1g carb.

Could the psyllium husk be replaced with almond meal?

Psyllium and almond meal/flour react very differently in baking.

I was so impressed with these. So crunchy and cheesy. I did add some parmesan, along with grated cheddar cheese. I also added milled flax seed as the mixture looked a bit wet and I was worried it wouldn't work out and I'd end up with a mess and wasted ingredients. But the crackers came out PERFECTLY and now my only concern is portion control!
