Notes
Mandy’s serving suggestion: Serve with veggie sticks and a homemade dip of choice.
STORING LEFTOVERS: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 14 days or freeze for up to 4 months.
Prep tips: If dough seems too sticky, add more flour.
Allergies: For a gluten-free version: Swap wholemeal spelt flour for brown rice flour or a gluten-free flour mix. For a dairy-free version: Swap yoghurt for coconut yoghurt or mayonnaise and cream cheese for vegan cream cheese or additional coconut yoghurt or another plant-based yoghurt of choice.
Easy ingredient swaps: Swap seeds for seeds of choice. Swap yoghurt for mayonnaise.
Additional boosters: Boost with ¼ cup of nutritional yeast before processing.
Baby-friendly version: Serve in finger food-sized pieces.
For fussy eaters: Blend the seeds into a fine meal before adding to the mix. Cut dough into funny shapes using cookie cutters before baking the crackers.
