Shannon's Famous Hemp Crisps

Submitted by 3vegkids

"These are healthy cookies made with shelled hemp seeds (aka hemp hearts). They are not low fat, but they are full of healthy fats and omega fatty acids. I made them for my family and they were gone in a day! Perfect for our 2 yr old who is underweight - bulking him up using healthy foods. These are the ingredients and instructions as written on the package of hemp seeds, but I made the following additions: pinch of salt, big pinch of baking powder, pinch of nutmeg, pinch of cloves."

I've tried multiple low-carb snack recipes and have always been underwhelmed. This is the first recipe I've tried that I loved instantly - I substituted Truvia baking blend for the brown sugar (use the equivalent amount chart on the bag) and almond flour (blanched, fine) for the flour. Very easy and delicious. They remind me of the maple and sesame treats I had as a child.
