These Gluten-Free Vegan Crackers are crispy and crunchy, super easy to make and full of flavour! They're filling and satisfying, nutty and fragrant, and keep well for several days. They're also nut-free, sugar-free and oil-free optional. They make the perfect snack or appetiser to serve with vegan cheese, pâté, hummus or a dip!

I always wondered whether it was worth making crackers at home, but honestly they taste so much better than the shop-bought ones as the taste and texture is so much fresher. Plus, you can easily customise them to fit your flavour preferences!

These Crackers are mainly made using a combination of oats and sunflower seeds. I also added poppy seeds for nutty flavour and rosemary for fragrance. Oil helps them crisp up in the oven whilst water helps them bind together. You can scroll down to see some substitution options!

How to make this recipe

  • Place all the ingredients apart from the water into a food processor.

  • Adding the water a bit at a time (because you don’t want to add too much), whizz until it forms a mixture that’s easy to stick together but firm enough to roll out easily, and still retaining some texture.

Tip: You might need to mix it around a few times so that it all blends together evenly.

  • Transfer this mixture onto a sheet of baking paper.
  • Place another sheet of baking paper on top of the mixture and use a rolling pin to roll out the mixture until it’s around 5mm (¼ inch) thick.

Tip: Try to roll it into as much of a neat rectangular shape as possible.

  • Use a sharp knife to slice it into even rectangles - you should be able to make around 26.

  • Transfer these onto a rectangular baking tray lined with baking paper (I had to divide mine between two baking trays).

How long do they keep for?

These Crackers keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 5 days - they're perfect for making ahead when entertaining!

  • The poppy seeds can be replaced with sesame seeds.

    I love this recipe!
    I've made it with almonds, thyme and chia seeds instead and also add a bit of freshly ground black pepper. I have rolled out very thin and cut them in rectangular shape 5*5 so they came out very crispy.. Baked them for 12 minutes.. Delicious... Thanks for this recipe!
