Absolutely delicious crackers! I've been trying cracker recipes that fit in with DH's low carb diet and these are the first that actually taste good. I baked mine until the edges were lightly browned (yes, it was about 25 minutes) but when they cooled they weren't crisp. I just popped them back in the oven and took them out when they were considerably browner. You have to keep a close eye because they can go quickly from brown to burnt, but the end result was a wonderful, hearty cracker with a nice crunch and loads of flavor. Try this with a soft, spreadable cheese -- Absolute Heaven!!

These. Are. Addictive! I made hummus from Bob's Red Mill garbanzo flour (sans tahini, not fond of). I've never made crackers before, but these sure are delish! I think the lemon juice and black pepper I added to the hummus makes it especially good. The downside, however, is that eating these crackers gives me gas ... ah, beans!
