I love flaxseed and I always have a bag of it at the ready. So when it was time to brainstorm what to do with some alligator meat that was given to me, I decided to put together a simple breading using some flaxseed.
I thought the baked alligator nuggets turned out great, but I did have some leftover breading to use up. And I don’t like waste!
So, I took the leftover breading and turned them into healthy, crunchy flaxseed-filled crackers.

- Total Time: 33 minutes
- Diet: Vegetarian
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a bowl, combine the leftover flaxseed breading with ½ cup of water. Stir until a dough forms. If necessary, add a little more water to achieve a manageable consistency.
- Lightly spray a baking dish with cooking spray. Place the dough in the dish and press it evenly to cover the base, aiming for a thickness of about ¼ inch.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the dough is browned and hard to the touch.
- After baking, turn off the oven and leave the crackers inside to cool completely with the oven. This will help them become crisper.
- Once cool, remove from the oven and cut the large cracker into square pieces.
- Transfer the crackers to a storage container and store in the refrigerator for up to a week, or freeze for longer storage.
Notes
Based on my experience, these crackers will keep their crunch even after being frozen in the freezer for up to six months.
