Crispbread Revisited

1 comments

I thought I would try something different for this recipe and I am glad it did.  I wanted to add a little more protein so I added quinoa flakes to the mix.  It came out a little more fragile, but not much, the best part is it is crispier and nuttier... oh so good.  Our house agrees so far this is the best version!

1 1/8 cup ground almonds
1 cup rice flour
1/2 cup oats
1/2 cup quinoa flakes
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp canola oil
1 and a bit cup of water

Preheat oven to 400F.Mix dry ingredients, then add oil and water. I usually add enough water so that is sticks well together, depending on what kind of flour you are using you may need more or less. Then mix well together. Cut 2 pieces of parchment paper the size of a large cookie sheet. Place dough onto one sheet and place the other sheet on top and roll out to fill the cookie sheet. It helps having the parchment paper on top as it does not stick to the rolling pin. Take the parchment paper off the top and score the dough into squares... whatever size you like. Then place in the oven for 7 minutes. Then cook at 350F for another 20-25 minutes. Depending on the thickness of your dough, but it should be crispy!

Enjoy!



A quick fun snack
