I want to make some crackers this weekend, does anyone know the secret to thin and really crunchy crackers?

Yep, add almond flour.

Not really a big cracker fan, but through trial and error, I finally came up with my own recipe for crispy corn chips that even the SAD eaters in my family like.

Ingredients

4.5 cups corn
1/4 cup sunflower seeds (soaked)
2 Tablespoons red onion
1 jalapeno pepper (you can add less to taste)
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 large red pepper chopped
3/4 almond flour (this is what makes it really crispy)
1/4 Tablespoon chili powder (more to taste)
1/2 cup ground flax soaked in 1/2-3/4 cup water for 30 min.

Process everything but the sunflower seeds until well blended, then add the sunflowers seeds and pulsate until well incorporated.

I usually flip them after they've been in the dehydrator for 4-5 hours, score 'em, then continue until done.

Thick or really thin, these really are the crispiest crackers I've ever had.

Looks yummy, lafsalot!

Do you use frozen corn or fresh?

Walnutty - I've used both, but since it is in season now, I've been using fresh.

You're very welcome garden granny.
