Ingredients:
- 1 cup whole ground rhy flour
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 cup oat bran
- 1 cup sesame seeds
- 1/2 cup flax seeds
- 1/2 cup wheat bran
- 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
- 2.5 tsp salt
- 3.5 cups water
It is very easy to make. Just stir everything together, spread out over 2 cookie sheets and bake at 350 F for about 45 minutes, then reduce heat to 250 F and bake for another 30 minutes. If you have an oven that circulates hot air you can bake both sheets at the same time, otherwise you have to bake them one at a time. Believe me, I speak from experience, having tried a short cut that didn't really work. I am actually still at the experimental stage re. baking. The point is that the crackers should be crisp but not burnt.
Also, the recipe doesn't say if you should grease the sheets or not. The first time I didn't and the knekkebrød came loose just fine. The second time (which is also the time of the short cut) it stuck to the sheets and I ended up with quite a lot of crumbs to feed to the chickens. They loved it and recycled them into eggs, but still, I buy chicken feed for that.
Ooh thank you! That really could not be easier, and I believe I have most of those ingredients. Might be missing a few types of seeds but I most of that already.
ReplyDeleteSo is there any shaping, or just spread it over the entire sheet? How does it break... does it crumble or can you break it into smaller pieces? I'm imagining the world's largest cracker =]
I forgot to say that before baking mark lines with a pastry cutter where you want to break it. And yes, just spread out. Its a pretty wet mess.
ReplyDeleteHow would I make this if I didn't want to put in all the weird seeds?
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you should make this Ilian. Besides all the wierd seeds, there is a lot of bran. Are you sure you can digest this at all?
