Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (120g) chickpea flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • about 1/3 cup (80ml) water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
  • 1 cup (150g) grapes, halved or whole
  • 1 cup (150g) strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 medium apple, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup (75g) blueberries
  • 1/2 cup (120g) hummus (store-bought or homemade)
  • Fresh parsley or mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and sesame seeds (if using). Add olive oil and lemon juice.
  3. Slowly pour in about 1/3 cup water, mixing until a soft dough forms. Adjust water as needed; dough should be pliable but not sticky.
  4. Transfer dough onto parchment paper, cover with another parchment sheet, and roll out evenly to about 1/8-inch (3mm) thickness.
  5. Remove top parchment paper and cut dough into small squares or desired shapes (about 1.5 inches / 4 cm). Prick each cracker with a fork.
  6. Transfer parchment with dough onto baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, turning halfway through. Crackers should be golden and crisp.
  7. While crackers bake, wash and prepare fruit: halve grapes, slice strawberries and apples, rinse blueberries.
  8. Arrange cooled crackers, fresh fruit clusters, and a small bowl or dollop of hummus on a snack board or lunchbox container.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley or mint leaves and serve at room temperature.

Notes

Roll dough as thin as possible without tearing for crisp crackers. Prick crackers with a fork to prevent puffing. Watch baking time closely to avoid burning. Store crackers in an airtight container for up to 5 days and re-crisp in a 300°F oven for 3-5 minutes if softened. Slice fruit just before serving to keep fresh and prevent browning.
