"Life At Its Best" Crackers

3 cups flour (you can use whole wheat or a combination of flours)
6 tablespoons of earth balance margarine
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix dry ingredients together;

Mix separately 1 tablespoon of ground flax with 3 tablespoons of water and mix thoroughly. To the flax mixture add 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar, plus 2 teaspoons sugar. Set aside while rolling out the dough.

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degree. Line baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly with oil.
  2. In a medium bowl, cut margarine into dry mix.
  3. Add 3/4 cup of water plus 2 tablespoons to the dry  mixture and stir until mixture forms a dough. Divide dough in half and wrap with parchment paper or waxed paper and chill for 10 minutes
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll out very thinly(or desired thickness) Brush with flax mixture and sprinkle with sesame seeds, flax, chia seeds or any other type of seasoning you might enjoy,(I used sesame, flax, chia seeds and also onion flakes).
  5. You can cut into strips or form any cracker shape you may like. Have fun!
  6. Transfer crackers to baking sheet
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes for crispy crackers. Transfer to racks for cooling.
