Vegan Oat Crakers - Update

Vegan Oat Crackers topped with onion jam and cheese

Since I developed this recipe, I made a few changes.  I cut back on the oil and added Old Bay.  Lately, I've been making these crackers about once a week.  They are delicious and full of healthy whole grains!

Preparation time: 10 minutes;  Baking time: 20 minutes

½ cup Old Fashioned Oats or a blend of rolled grains (I used Old Wessex Ltd’s 5 Grain Cereal)
1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
¼ cup All-purpose Flour
1/8 teaspoon Ground Pepper
1 teaspoon Old Bay (or your favorite spice blend)
 1/8 teaspoon Salt 
3 tablespoons Olive Oil
1/2 cup Water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Combine oats, flours, pepper, Old Bay, and salt.

Mix in the olive oil.

Slowly incorporate the water into a dough until it is no longer crumbly and easily forms into a ball.

Roll out the dough on parchment paper to about 1/8^th inch thick, and cut the rolled out dough into ~1.5 inch squares.

Place the crackers on lined baking sheet.  They don’t spread, so you can put them pretty close.

Stab each once or twice with a fork because it will make you feel like a badass (it also keeps the crackers from puffing up).

Bake for 10 minutes, rotate pans, and bake for an additional 6-10 minutes.  (16-20 minutes total).

Makes approximately 36 crackers.
