Ingredients
- 1/3 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/3 cup uncooked quinoa
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon olive oil
- 8 ounces shredded cheddar (about 1 cup)
- 4 ounces shredded parmesan (about 1/2 cup)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Toss sunflower seeds, quinoa, sesame seeds, and hemp seeds with olive oil and spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven about 15 minutes, tossing every 5 minutes, until seeds are fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Increase oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Layer your crackers: Drop 1 packed tablespoon of cheddar on parchment paper. Slightly shape and flatten into a 2-inch circle. Repeat until you've created 10 circles on a baking sheet, placing them 2 inches apart.
-
Top with 1 teaspoon toasted seed mixture, 1 1/2 packed teaspoons parmesan, and 1 more teaspoon toasted seeds. Shape and press slightly into a 2-inch circle.
-
Bake about 15-20 minutes, until the crisps are golden, but not burnt.
-
Remove from heat and let cool on a wire rack while you prepare and bake the second half of the crisps. They will get crispier as they cool.
