How to Store Mixed Seed Crackers

To keep your mixed seed crackers fresher than your last online order, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They should stay crispy for about a week. If they last that long! 😅

For longer storage, you can stick them in the fridge. Just remember to allow them to come back to room temperature before munching. No one likes a cold cracker, right?

Tips to Make Mixed Seed Crackers

Experiment with flavors! Try adding different spices and herbs according to your taste – it’s your kitchen, go wild!
Make sure to spread the mixture evenly on the baking sheet. This helps them bake uniformly.
Don’t skip the cooling time after baking. It’s tempting, but hot crackers don’t break as nicely.

Variation

Feeling adventurous? Swap out the seeds for nuts or add in some dried herbs. You can even mix in some grated cheese if you’re feeling cheesy (pun intended)! Seriously, you can turn these crackers into your own personal flavor playground.
