Make (or buy) Vegan Crackers with No Palm Oil

These 4-ingredient crackers (The Simple Veganista) are ideal to replace packs of crackers in plastic packaging, made with animal ingredients or palm oil. All you need is water, salt, flaxseed meal and almond flour. Serve with Flora vegan butter and artisan vegan cheese.

Avoid crackers (especially with seeds) for young children and choking risk (also avoid spreading blue cheese (dairy or not) if pregnant/nursing or for weak immune systems). Read more on food safety for people and pets (keep away from pets due to garlic, onion, salt etc).

Don’t feed leftover crackers (or any crusty bread) to garden birds or wildlife due to choking hazards (most also contain salt and fat that smears on feathers, affecting weatherproofing & insulation).

Easy Vegan Crispy Crackers (It Doesn’t Taste Like Chicken) are very versatile. You can leave them as they are, or flavour with fresh or dried herbs. They’ll keep in an airtight container, for a good few days (if they last that long!)

We are always being told about ‘local food miles’. Well, palm oil is not local at all. It’s grown in Indonesia, and then shipped (by air) thousands of miles, creating a huge carbon footprint. For an ingredient only used, because it gives more profits to big food brands.
