Cinnamon Crackers

/

Try making these delicious cinnamon crackers for your next snack option! Brown rice flour is a healthy alternative to traditional white flour as it is unrefined and a great source of dietary fiber. Flaxseed meal is high in omega-3 fatty acids and is an excellent source of lignans, which help reduce heart disease risk and balance hormones. Coconut sugar is the sweetener of choice for this recipe as it provides a sweet and nutty flavor while still retaining its natural fiber. Cinnamon helps to support healthy blood sugar levels and provides antioxidants to combat inflammation. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • ⅔ cup fine brown rice flour

  • 2 tbsp flaxseed meal

  • 2 tbsp coconut sugar

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)

  • 5 tbsp cold water

  • ½ tsp cinnamon

  • ¼ tsp baking powder

  • ⅛ tsp salt

  • 1 tbsp coconut sugar, for topping

Instructions:

1) Preheat oven to 350 F. In a bowl, combine the brown rice flour, flaxseed meal, 2 tbsp coconut sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Add the melted coconut oil to the flour mixture and mix until crumbly. Pour in the cold water and mix until a dough is formed.

2) Press the dough together and place between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Roll out the dough until it’s about ⅛-inch thick, and coat with 1 tbsp of coconut sugar.

3) Transport the rolled dough, with the bottom piece of parchment paper still attached, onto a baking sheet and bake for 10 -12 minutes.

4) Remove from the oven and cut the dough into 1-inch pieces. Bake the crackers for an additional 10 -12 minutes. Allow the crackers to cool and enjoy!
