Gluten Free Grain-Free Chickpea Flour Crackers Recipe

These Chickpea Flour Crackers are a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make snack that’s both gluten-free and grain-free. Made with chickpea flour, these crackers are crispy, flavorful, and perfect for pairing with dips, vegan cheese, or enjoying on their own!

Ingredients:

1 cup chickpea flour
1/4 cup tapioca flour (for crispiness)
1 tbsp olive oil (or coconut oil)
1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
1/2 tsp onion powder (optional)
1/2 tsp ground cumin (optional, for extra flavor)
2-3 tbsp water (adjust as needed)
Sesame seeds, flaxseeds, or herbs for topping (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chickpea flour, tapioca flour, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground cumin. Stir until evenly mixed.
Add wet ingredients: Drizzle the olive oil into the dry mixture and stir until it’s evenly distributed. Gradually add water—start with 2 tablespoons and mix. Continue adding water, a little at a time, until the dough comes together. It should be firm but pliable.
Roll out the dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out as thin as possible (about 1/8 inch thick). The thinner the dough, the crispier the crackers will be.
Cut into shapes: Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Use a knife, pizza cutter, or cookie cutter to cut the dough into cracker-sized squares, rectangles, or any shape you prefer.
Optional toppings: Sprinkle your crackers with sesame seeds, flaxseeds, or your favorite herbs (like rosemary or thyme) for added flavor and texture.
Bake: Transfer the parchment paper with the crackers onto the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, checking halfway through to ensure the crackers are not browning too quickly. If they are, reduce the heat slightly.
Cool and enjoy: Once golden and crisp, remove from the oven and let the crackers cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
