yum, these look kindof like the Kashi crackers I eat – only raw (thus better![]())
I will definitely be making these soon.

hello,eveneden75, i’m pretty new at this myself:) i buy whole seeds,and grind them in the food processor or clean coffee grinder,but not very fine. you can soak them in an equal amount of water ,until water is absorbed up to 8 hours,and grind the soaked seeds, too.i think you can also use the soaked seeds whole:)

of course only use the food processor to grind soaked seeds;)
