A seed cracker is a thin, crisp savoury baked snack made from a grain-based dough studded with assorted seeds. The exact mix of seeds and grains varies by recipe, while baking gives the pieces their toasted edges and a lightly nutty flavour.
It works as a snack on its own or alongside cheese, dips and fresh vegetables. In many places, seed crackers are also served on a grazing board or with soup in place of bread. Their seeds make them filling and provide fibre and protein; 100 g contains 10 g of fibre. For a lighter snack, pair a few with sliced vegetables or a simple yoghurt dip.

Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Seed crackers are made from a thin dough or mixture containing seeds such as sesame, sunflower, pumpkin, flax, or chia. Recipes may also use flour, water, and oil, so ingredients and texture vary between homemade and store-bought versions.
To make seed crackers at home, mix seeds with a little flour, water, and oil, spread the mixture thinly, and bake until crisp. Ground flax or chia mixed with water can help bind the seeds together.
Seed crackers pair well with cheese, hummus, avocado, dips, or soft spreads. Their crisp texture works especially well with creamy toppings. Add toppings just before serving so the crackers do not become soggy.
Homemade seed crackers often crumble when the mixture lacks enough moisture or a binder, or when the crackers are handled while warm. Spread the mixture evenly, score it before baking, and let it cool completely before breaking it apart.
Store seed crackers fully cooled in an airtight container in a dry place. Moisture makes them lose their crunch, so keep the container away from steam, heat, and direct sunlight.
Seed crackers can stand in for bread in some meals, such as alongside soup or topped with cheese, but they are not as easy to use for sandwiches. Pair them with a filling topping if you want a more substantial snack.
Seed crackers may provide more fiber and unsaturated fats than some plain crackers, but recipes differ. Added salt, flour, and oils also affect the overall choice, so compare the ingredients of the particular crackers rather than assuming all seed versions are alike.
Seed crackers can fit into a weight-loss eating plan, but their seed-rich ingredients can make portions energy-dense. Have a measured serving with a filling topping, rather than grazing straight from a large packet.
People with diabetes can eat seed crackers, but portion size and what they are eaten with matter for blood glucose. Pairing them with a protein-containing food may help make a snack more satisfying; ask a healthcare professional about individual meal planning.
Yes, you can freeze seed crackers in an airtight freezer-safe container once they are completely cool. They may lose some crispness as they thaw, so let them come back to room temperature and briefly re-crisp them in a low oven if needed.
