Crispy Seed Crackers

These seed crackers have become a staple in my house. I came upon the recipe in a pinterest video. No list of ingredients, but a video that I had to watch about 15 times to quickly write down all the parts. I played with it and changed it a little to make it my own. You can do the same. This recipe is very forgiving and can become a new staple in your home.

One of the reasons I love it so much is that it has become an easy replacement for bread and simple filler carbs that really don't serve my body or my microbiome. As a coach I try to find simple hacks to help individuals slowly integrate small changes to make a huge difference over time. These crackers are a perfect example of a small change that can make a huge difference.

Below you can see the nutritional comparison if you use these crackers to upgrade you morning avocado toast. By simply swapping the sourdough bread out for a serving or two of these crackers you reduce your carb intake by 60%, while increasing your quality fat and fiber intake by more than 50%. And check out the loads of minerals you add with this one simple swap.
