Equipment

  • 1 blender
  • 1 dehydrator
  • 1 dehydrator tray
  • 1 parchment or dehydrator sheets

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup quinoa rinsed well
  • Water for soaking
  • Additional water as needed for blending
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt or to taste
  • Seasonings of choice: Italian seasoning, Garlic powder or fresh garlic, Basil, Lemon pepper, Dill, Sage, Chipotle seasoning, Other herbs and spices you enjoy

Instructions
 

  • Rinse quinoa thoroughly several times, then soak until softened. For a fermented version, allow the soaked quinoa to ferment for 2–3 days to create rejuvelac (using quinoa instead of wheat berries) before preparing the crackers.
  • Blend the soaked quinoa with enough water to create a smooth, spreadable batter.
  • Add your favorite herbs and spices, then spread the batter thinly onto a dehydrator tray lined with a dehydrator sheet or parchment.
  • Dehydrate at 115°F until the crackers are completely dry and crisp, usually several hours depending on how thinly you spread the batter. Start checking them around 4–6 hours, then continue dehydrating as needed.
  • The crackers are ready when they feel firm and dry all the way through and break with a crisp snap rather than bending or feeling soft in the center. Thicker crackers may need longer, while very thin crackers will dry more quickly.
