Gluten-free Seeded Crispbread

15th June 2020 by Louise


Gluten-Free Seeded Crispbreads: A Healthy and Moreish Snack 


When it comes to snacking, finding something that’s both delicious and nutritious can be a challenge, especially if you’re avoiding gluten. Gluten-free seeded crispbreads—the perfect balance of health and flavour. Made with a blend of mixed seeds, cornflour, olive oil, and sea salt, these crunchy crackers are not only incredibly satisfying but also packed with natural goodness. 


Packed with nutrition 


Each crispbread is a powerhouse of goodness, thanks to the variety of seeds used. Sunflower, sesame, flax, and pumpkin seeds are just a few examples of what might go into the mix, providing a fantastic array of nutrients. These seeds are rich in healthy fats, protein, and fibre, helping to keep you energised and satiated throughout the day. They’re also a brilliant source of essential minerals like magnesium and zinc, making them a great addition to any balanced diet. 


Moreish and versatile 


One of the best things about these crispbreads is their versatility. They work beautifully as a base for canapés, a crunchy accompaniment to soups and salads, or even as a healthier alternative to crisps. Or equally satisfying straight out of the tin.

Delicious, healthy snacks, delicious eaten on their own or served with cheese or dips.
Prep Time14 minutes mins
Cook Time1 hour hr 15 minutes mins
Course: Snack
Cuisine: Scandinavian, Swedish
Servings: 25 crispbreads

Equipment

  • 1 Baking tray measuring 30 x 40 cm

Ingredients

  • 170 g Mixed seeds ie. Pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, buckwheat & linseed
  • 100 g cornflour cornstarch
  • 30 g olive oil extra virgin
  • 250 g freshly boiled water I weigh the water
  • 6 g sea salt fine
  • sea salt flakes to scatter on the top

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven 160℃ (fan). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Mine measures 40 x 30 cm.
  • Place all but 20g of the seeds in a bowl with the cornflour, add the oil and fine sea salt. Stir to blend the ingredients. Just as the kettle finishes boiling, carefully pour the water over the seed mix and give it a good stir.
  • Pour the mixture immediately onto the tray and spread evenly with an off set spatular, making sure there are no gaps. Sprinkle the remaining seeds on the top, and then add a light sprinkling of Maldon sea salt flakes. Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the tray from the oven to cut into squares or rectangles. Now return the tray to the oven to crisp up. Continue to bake for one hour, then turn the oven off.
  • Once cool, store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

To ensure the crispbread is completely crisp, once they’re done, turn the oven off and leave the door open for 5 minutes to cool down quickly. Then shut it and leave the crispbread there for several hours.

    I’m in the USA what is Swedish cornflour? We have yellow ‘Corn flour’ and white powdery ‘corn starch’ . They are completely different ingredients.

    I’m also in the U.s. I made a mistake and used what we call corn flour (maize flour) from heritage corn. Used 2 x the amount in the recipe and.a little more honey and a little more salt. Everyone! love them. Happy error.

Blueberry sugar buns from Buns, Sweet & Simple Bak Blueberry sugar buns from Buns, Sweet & Simple Bakes 📖 - but I couldn’t resist a little riff: a raspberry sugar coating, and cardamom in the dough because it works so well with raspberry (and, let’s be honest, I have a mild addiction to it). That warm spice against the tart raspberry is exactly the flavour combination I’m looking for.

Full method’s in the book page 61, video of the process is up on my stories and highlights now.

As summer draws to a close and the days grow short As summer draws to a close and the days grow shorter (and definitely cooler), autumn is knocking. I’m definitely ready for the golden light, cosy evenings, and warmer layers.

My summer recap: lots happening in real life, not much of it made it onto here though. We’ve spent plenty of time with family, and we’ve also gutted and started renovating our next home.

#summerrecap #celebrationcakes #buckinghamshire #helloautumn #reallifeupdate

Can’t believe my dahlias made it this year. I planted them late and the lack of rain, but they did okay!

Plenty of cake orders this summer, added just a couple here. Autumn weddings seem to be a thing this year.

Cornwall in July was magical - and not too hot!

Plenty of al fresco dining at home and away.

Plenty of blackberries still to be had, this was yesterday.

And you can’t beat a Cornish sunset…

Come and learn the whole process on 4th September in Bourne End. Small group, hands-on, and you’ll leave with your own starter, two loaves, and a dough ready to prove and bake at home the next morning.

Raspberry & Hibiscus Birthday Cake That pink is Raspberry & Hibiscus Birthday Cake 

That pink is freeze-dried raspberry powder through the Swiss meringue buttercream - for flavour of course, but it also turns the whole lot this gorgeous natural pink. Finished with fresh edible flowers. You can catch the assembly over on stories if you fancy seeing how it all came together.

In other news, we’ve been making the most of these cooler temperatures for eating outside. Pizza, baked fish, spatchcock chicken, on the Big Green Egg. I love eating al fresco.
We’re off to the Cornish coast soon too, and very much looking forward to the sea air, proper coastal walks and even better fresh fish.

Crustless Quiche I’ve filled this with griddled c Crustless Quiche

I’ve filled this with griddled courgette and oven-roasted tomatoes, though it really is one of those recipes that works with whatever vegetables you have in the fridge.

The cottage cheese stands out here - it gives the whole thing a lovely creamy, slightly sour depth that you don’t expect. Along with 6 eggs, a good mature hard cheese and a couple of tablespoons of crème fraîche, that’s genuinely all you need. Bake in a 20cm/8inch lined tin.

180°C for 35 minutes. Equally good warm or at room temperature, which makes it very useful for this time of year.
