directions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Grease a baking sheet well and set aside. (Note: To make sure that the crackers come off the pan easily, you can also use a few drops of lecithin along with the oil you use for greasing the pan.).
  • Place all dry ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until they are consistency of cornmeal. Stop to stir ingredients if they stick.
  • Stir in milk.
  • Use a frosting knife or rubber spatula to spread batter thinly and evenly on the well-greased baking sheet.
  • Place in preheated 325 degree oven and bake slowly until delicately golden, about 15-20 minutes After about 10 mins, use a sharp knife to score the dough in squares, rectangles or desired shape. Watch them carefully, if the crackers on the outside brown faster, remove them and continue to bake the rest.
  • Crackers are the crispest while they are baking, so loosen them from baking sheet as soon as they come out of the oven to keep them from crumbling.

  1. ItalianMama, if your food processor isn't able to get the oats fine or the mixture smooth, if you have a blender, try the blender instead. That should help. :)
     
  2. Thanks for this awesome and easy recipe! I made a couple of substitutions, used a rolled multigrain cereal instead of oatmeal, and they came out great. www.oatmealeveryday.blogspot.com
     
  3. Very good and easy recipe! As I used rice milk, I added one tablespoon olive oil because rice milk is much more watery than dairy milk, but I'm not sure it was at all necessary. Anyway the crackers turned out perfectly and taste delicious. This will be a keeper! Made for Healthy Choices ABC.
     
  4. Very easy and flavorful crackers! I love how simple it is to put together. Thanks for the great recipe!
     
  5. I'm not going to rate this, because I think I did something wrong--just thought some comments might be helpful for others. First, I couldn't get my oats very finely chopped in the food processor no matter how long I ran it, so perhaps using oat flour would be better. Second, because the batter was slightly lumpy, it was impossible to spread thinly without creating a bunch of holes and gaps. So I wound up with it spread thicker than I would have liked. And they came out flexible and doughy even though I increased the cooking time by nearly double. Now, my 10-month-old seemed to really love them, although they were so crumbly that it made a big mess. Still, I think I may try again with some oat flour and see if that makes a difference. Oh, and I also substituted wheat germ for the walnuts because my baby can't have nuts yet. Anyway, thanks for posting this recipe, and I'll update this review once I've had a chance to try again!
