FAQs

1. Can I use other seeds or nuts?
Absolutely! Go wild with whatever you’ve got on hand. Just remember that different seeds and nuts may change the texture or flavor a bit.

2. Can I freeze these crackers?
Yes! They freeze really well. Just make sure they’re in a sealed container to keep them from getting freezer burn.

3. What can I do if my crackers aren’t crispy enough?
If they’re chewy after baking, just pop them back in the oven for a few more minutes. Keep an eye on them so they don’t go from chewy to charred!
