Swedish Gluten-free Seeded Crispbread

Gluten-free Seeded Crispbread

Gluten-free Seeded Crispbread

This recipe for Swedish seeded crispbread has been on my to-do-list to post for some time. It was one of my best sellers at Marlow’s Artisan food market.  Packed full of healthy seeds, oats and gluten-free too so suitable for coeliacs.  These hard crispbreads (frökex or fröknäcke) are incredibly popular in Sweden, with most households baking their own version.  Delicious served with cheese or pate however really good as a snack in their own right. Believe me, once you start eating them, you’ll find it incredibly difficult to stop. The ultimate healthy snack!

Swedish Gluten-free Seeded Crispbread

Prep Time20 mins
Cook Time50 mins
Course: Snack
Cuisine: Scandinavian
Servings: 40 crispbreads

Equipment

  • 2 Baking trays measuring 30 x 40 cm

Ingredients

  • 290 g Mixed seeds ie. Pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, buckwheat & linseed
  • 130 g Porridge oats gluten-free if you’re coeliac
  • 45 g olive oil
  • 350 ml tepid water
  • 10 ml runny honey
  • 60 g cornflour
  • 6 g sea salt fine

Instructions

  • Begin by placing the seeds and oats in a bowl, add the water, oil, honey and sea salt. Give it a good stir. Set to one side for 20 minutes.
  • Add the cornflour and stir well. Have two baking trays ready, lined with parchment paper. Mine measure 40 x 30 cm.
  • Preheat the oven 190Cfan.
  • Divide the mixture in half and spread evenly on the two trays, making sure there are no gaps. Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the trays from the oven to cut. Flip the now hard yet pliable dough onto a large board and cut into even sized rectangles or squares. Reduce the oven temperature to 175Cfan. Place the crispbreads back onto the tray and pop back into the oven to crisp up. This can take between 25-35 minutes. Check every 10 minutes. The crispbreads in the centre of the tray tend to take longer than the ones at the edges. Have a look at the underside, they should be lightly golden and completely dried out.
  • Once done leave to 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.

With a run of wedding cakes to prepare and a few o With a run of wedding cakes to prepare and a few other projects on the go I haven’t been able to make as much sourdough as I’d like. Well I remedied that yesterday! I double fed my starter on Sunday, to get it really active and then embarked on making ciabatta. Now this has been on my bake list for some time, it’s a lovely loaf with salads or made into a giant sandwich or even toasted. 
I’m almost there on the method, it needs a little tweaking but I’m pretty pleased with the result.
I had the pleasure of making and delivering this w I had the pleasure of making and delivering this wedding cake to @sircharlesnapier yesterday. What a gorgeous setting (I’ve popped a couple of photos on stories).

This was served for dessert, so was filled with a seasonal gooseberry and elderflower compote then coated in Lemon Swiss Meringue Buttercream.
That’s it for wedding cakes, for now at least 😅

Have a great weekend friends.

Pepper Spiced Roasted Salmon with Garden Vegetable Salad.

For the Salmon
800g Salmon fillet (or sea trout)
1.5 tsp Malden salt
1.5 tbls white, red & green peppercorns
1 tsp fennel seeds
1 tsp Demerara sugar 
2 Lemons, zest only
1 tbsp olive oil

Oven 180C fan.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the salmon fillet on the top.
Place the salt, peppercorns, fennel seeds & sugar in a mortar. Wash the lemons then zest 1 1/2 and place in the mortar. Pound together so that everything is mixed well (if you do not have a mortar, you can mix in a small bowl). Spread the spice mixture over the salmon and rub it in thoroughly. Drizzle over oil. Slice the lemon in thick slices and place around the salmon. Leave out for 1 hour. 

Green salsa
Chop the leaves of a bunch of parsley finely, then finely chop a small clove garlic and place in a bowl. Zest the remaining lemon half a add the lemon juice, 50ml EVOO, salt and pepper to the bowl of parsley. Mix together to a smooth sauce. You can also use a hand mixer.

Bake the salmon for 20-25 minutes or until just cooked through. Serve with roasted new potatoes a seasonal salad. And quick pickled red onions.
Glad Midsommar🇸🇪 I love where I live but Sw Glad Midsommar🇸🇪

I love where I live but Sweden is the place to be on Midsummer’s Eve. 

Always celebrated on the Friday (between 19-25 June and a National holiday)  A day filled with flower crowns (midsommarkransar), dancing, singing and a sun that never sets. 

And of course there’s plenty of food, cold beer and schnapps, preferably spiced. 
Apart from pickled herring, new potatoes & sour cream there’ll be a main course.
Watch out for my next post in a few hours…
I promised a few recipes for midsummer…let’s s I promised a few recipes for midsummer…let’s start with dessert: a super light summer berry cake with fresh cream with a hint of vanilla.

I’ll be posting a few Swedish inspired midsummer recipes in the next few days should you want to celebrate the summer solstice, the Scandinavia way.

Hope you’ve had a lovely weekend.
