Swedish 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 versitile

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.

So, whether you’re looking to boost your snack game or simply want a healthier nibble, gluten-free seeded crispbreads are a delicious choice you won’t regret. Give them a try, I guarantee they’ll become a staple in your kitchen.

    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.

A basket of quince arrived in my kitchen this week A basket of quince arrived in my kitchen this week - gnarled, golden, and wonderfully aromatic. I’ve poached them slowly in the oven with lemon, cinnamon, and a touch of star anise. It’s one of those small autumn rituals that fills the house with comfort.

On another note, tomorrow marks Cinnamon Bun Day—a moment when Sweden, and anyone with a soft spot for spiced, buttery swirls, gathers around the ritual of fika. It’s a gentle pause, a cup of something warm in hand, and the comfort of a bun that smells of cinnamon and sugar. A small celebration of sweetness and connection. So look out for my post…

SWEET POTATO & LENTIL SOUP

I’ve always said I’m not terribly fond of sweet potatoes, yet I keep giving them another go, knowing how good they are for you. I think I’ve finally cracked it with this hearty soup – gently spiced, wonderfully rich, full of depth, and just right for a satisfying lunch.

📝
½ large sweet potato, peeled
1 medium carrot, peeled & cut into batons
1 onion, peeled & cut into eighths
1 romano pepper, deseeded & chopped
1.5 tsp ground cumin
1.5 tsp ground coriander
½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
virgin rapeseed oil (for sautéing)
2cm piece fresh ginger, peeled & chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled
50g split red lentils, rinsed
120g coconut milk
1 can quality tomatoes
4–5 cherry tomatoes, halved
toasted desiccated coconut & fresh coriander to serve 

1. Heat a splash of oil in a large pan. Add onion, carrot, pepper & sweet potato. Sauté until starting to soften.
2. Stir in garlic, ginger & spices. Cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Add lentils, canned tomatoes, 2 cans of water & the coconut milk. Simmer until the veg are soft.
4. Scoop out a ladle of chunky veg and set aside. Blitz the rest until smooth.
5. Return the reserved veg to the pan, stir in the halved cherry tomatoes, and heat through.
6. Serve topped with toasted desiccated coconut & fresh coriander

Figs are at their very best right now – I’ll b Figs are at their very best right now – I’ll be sharing the full recipe this week on my blog for my Fig, Blue Cheese & Walnut Filo Tart. I love making this with fresh figs; their natural sweetness pairs perfectly with the tang of blue cheese and the crunch of filo and walnuts. A drizzle of honey straight from the oven brings it all together – autumn on a plate.
