Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups chickpea flour
• 1/2 cup rice flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon gluten free baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
• 1/3 cup flax seed meal
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 3/4 cup water

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350°f (180°c).
• 2 mix all dry ingredients together well. stir in the oil and begin stirring in water a little at a time. the dough will need to be formed into a ball, if it is too dry add a little more water, if too wet, more flour.
• 3 divide the dough in half and roll each half into a ball.
• 4 use a silpat or cut a generous amount of plastic wrap and dust it with a gluten-free flour. flatten one ball into a rectangle, place it on the silpat or plastic wrap and sprinkle with some more flour. place another large piece of plastic wrap on the dough and using a rolling pin, roll the dough out as thinly as possible. it might be necessary to peel off the top layer of plastic and re-dust a few times.
• 5 peel off the top layer of plastic, dust with a little more flour, place a baking sheet over it, slide another baking sheet under the bottom plastic wrap, flip over, remove the other sheet of plastic wrap and bake.
• 6 a nice touch, although not necessary, is to glaze the crackers before baking with an egg or cornstarch glaze.
• 7 mine were a little less than an eighth of an inch, but less is literally more! crackers, that is.
• 8 bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned and crispy. they will crisp up more after they cool off. after cooled, store in an airtight container.
