Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 400 g 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if necessary)
  • 1/4 cup natural nut butter (almond, peanut, or tahini) Make sure it's at room temperature.
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil Can be substituted with rosemary or oregano.
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 160 degrees Celsius (320 degrees Fahrenheit) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, rolled oats, nut butter, basil, onion powder, and salt. Blend for about 2 minutes until the chickpeas are finely mashed and the mixture forms a dough.
  3. If the mixture seems dry, add a small splash of water and pulse to combine.
  4. Divide the dough into 4 to 5 portions, roll each portion out thinly, and cut into desired shapes.
Baking
  1. Transfer the shaped crackers to the prepared baking tray and bake for 25 minutes or until they are lightly golden and crisp.
  2. Let the crackers cool completely before serving.

Notes

Store crackers in an airtight container for 1 to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 2 months. Pop them back in the oven briefly to refresh their crispness.
