Total Time: 30 mins
Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 24 crackers
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place gluten-free rolled oats in a food processor and pulse until they become a fine flour-like consistency, about 1-2 minutes.
- Transfer processed oats to a medium mixing bowl and add salt and nutritional yeast. Whisk dry ingredients together to ensure even distribution.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in olive oil and water. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until a cohesive dough forms.
- Let the dough rest for 5 minutes to allow the oats to absorb moisture and become more pliable.
- Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to approximately 1/8 inch thickness using a rolling pin.
- Remove the top parchment sheet and use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to score the dough into rectangular cracker shapes.
- Transfer the parchment with scored dough directly onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from oven and allow crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet for maximum crispness.
- Once cooled, break along scored lines and store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Use a food processor to ensure your oats are finely ground, which helps create a smoother, more consistent dough.
- Let the dough rest for 5 minutes to allow moisture absorption, making it easier to roll out.
- Roll the dough between parchment papers to prevent sticking and achieve an even thickness.
- Score the crackers before baking to make breaking them easier after cooling.
- Keep an eye on the edges while baking - golden brown is your signal for perfect crispness.
- Allow crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet to maximize crunchiness.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 5 days.
