Craving a wholesome, crunchy snack? These Oatmeal Wheat Crackers are the perfect blend of simplicity and nutrition. Made with a hearty mix of old-fashioned rolled oats, whole wheat flour, and ground flaxseed, these crackers are packed with fiber and flavor. A touch of olive oil gives them a flaky, crisp texture, while optional toppings like sesame seeds, sea salt, or herbs let you customize them to suit your taste. With only 15 minutes of prep time, this easy, homemade recipe is a healthier alternative to store-bought snacks and pairs beautifully with your favorite dips, cheeses, or spreads. Perfect for meal prep, these crackers stay fresh for up to a week in an airtight container, making them an ideal go-to for snacking on the fly.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor or blender, pulse the rolled oats until they become a fine flour-like consistency.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, whole wheat flour, ground flaxseed, salt, and baking powder. Stir well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.
Add the olive oil and water to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough feels too dry, add an additional tablespoon of water, one at a time, until the texture is cohesive but not sticky.
Place the dough on a clean, lightly floured surface. Roll it out using a rolling pin to about 1/8-inch thickness.
Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into your desired cracker shapes (e.g., squares or rectangles). Transfer the pieces to the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don't overlap.
For extra flavor, lightly brush the tops with a bit of water or olive oil and sprinkle with optional toppings like sesame seeds, sea salt, or dried herbs if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes or until the edges are golden and the crackers are crisp.
Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will firm up as they cool.
Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
