• Ready In: 26 hrs
• Serves: 12
• Yields: 120 crackers

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup buckwheat groats, soaked in 1 cup water for 1 hour
• 1⁄2 cup  ground buckwheat groats
• 1⁄2 cup raisins, soaked in 1 cup water for 15 minutes
• 2  tablespoons maple syrup
• 1  garlic clove
• 1  teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 cup  ground sesame seeds
• 1⁄2 cup sesame seeds

Directions

1. Blend soaked buckwheat groats (with any remaining water) and raisins with raisin water and continue until raisins are broken up. Add maple syrup, garlic, and salt, When well blended, add ground and whole sesame seeds. Spread mixture fairly thin onto drying sheets. I spread one and a half cups of mixture onto 12" x 18" thin plastic sheets available in cake supplies and a glass table with a lamp on the floor to check the thickness. Be careful not to spread too thinly as crackers will disintegrate when flipping them. Put cracker sheets in dehydrator at 110 degrees (or on cookie sheet in oven at lowest setting and door open). Remove after about 2-4 hours and score crackers for breaking and return. Flip crackers onto screen as soon as they can be handled without breaking (after about 6-12 hours) and return until crisp (another 12-24 hours). If crackers are allowed to stay on plastic sheets too long, they will stick like glue!
