From Victoria Boutenko's 12 Steps to Raw Foods. I haven't tried it yet and I have to give the library book back. I read in their newsletter that they tossed some crumbs from these crackers outside for the birds and in the spring flax started growing on the spot. Now that's live food!

25 -32 crackers (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups flax seeds
1 cup water
3 large carrots, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
4 medium garlic cloves
2 tomatoes (optional)
1 teaspoon caraway seed
1 teaspoon coriander seed
1 teaspoon celtic sea salt (optional)

Directions

1
Grind the flaxseed in a dry Vita-Mix blender. (Or do the best you can with a more wimpy blender. i.e. the kind I have.).
2
Put that into a large bowl and put the rest of the ingredients into the blender and blend.
3
Mix all ingredients in the big bowl.
4
Cover dough with a towel and let sit in a warm area overnight to ferment slightly.
5
Use a spatula to spread dough onto non-stick dehydrating sheets and divide it into squares.
6
Dehydrate until just dry if you want it to be bread-like. Dehydrate longer for crispy crackers that will keep for a couple months.

I tagged this in V'gan Swap 7-09. I had this in my to try cookbook, but we don't have a dehydrator and tried "dehydrating" it in a low oven (150°). After 8 hours, it was like fruit leather, so I baked it at 350° for 15-20 min. Not raw, but I think it would be good with the tomatoes (once they come in). I added some zucchini. I would try replacing some flax seed with flour next time, as I've found (after a couple of recipes) that I'm not fond of the flax seed taste in crackers. Anyways, I think I need to get a dehydrator! Will keep to try again. Thanks!

One of the most successful raw recipes I've tried. I added 1/4 of an onion to this mixture, and didn't use the coriander seeds. The flavor of the caraway came through very well. I also used one tomato because that's what I had on hand. An offset spatula was very helpful in spreading the mixture onto the dehydrator sheets. I ended up with 4 sheets of crackers, two a little thinner than the others. I only have two Teflex sheets, and used wax paper for the other two trays. The crackers stuck to the wax paper and it was difficult to peel off, but it eventually came off okay. The Teflex sheets are a must if you're going to be dehydrating this type of recipe. Used a pizza cutter to score into little Wheat Thin sized crackers. Next time I will sprinkle some coarse salt over the crackers before dehydrating.

!!! I read the same book A great read & a great recipe...the crackers come out perfect...I love the wonderful flavor w/ the caraway seeds...I skipped the tomato this time but may at some point give that a try (if my home grown EVER turn reddish {lol} ) I got 3 round trays (2.5 really) -using the flex(y) sheets in 2 and parchment paper in one, try both if you can...neat subtle difference in the way the cracker set up oh, I grind my flax in my coffee grinder thing that I have had for about 15 years... it came as a bonus with a coffee machine (...and a husband...that's another story...)- for the rest I used my food processor and hand mixed the seeds...my drying time went about 8 hours give or take & yield just about 30...LOVED THEM !! YUMMY NEW SNACK!! they disappear FAST in my house- thanks mliss for sharing another great recipe find... LOVE LIVE!
