If you’re as big a fan of hummus as we are then you’re always looking for different things to use as a conduit to getting it into your mouth. These vegan,  Chick Pea & Dukkah Crackers are PERFECT (and taste pretty good even without being loaded with hummus!) Using chickpea flour also makes them gluten free .. win win!

I’m such a lightweight when it comes to spice, always have been, but the dukkah gently warms rather than removes a layer of skin in your mouth!  And the whole flax seeds add a wonderful nutty crunch.

You’ll want to roll the dough out between sheets of greaseproof or baking parchment as it’s quite soft and you don’t want to make it too dry by having to add more of the chickpea flour.

They also don’t spread so you can lay them fairly close together for baking.

Keep a couple of cans of chickpeas in your cupboard and you’ll never have to worry about a hummus shortage again!  Give this Sun-Dried Tomato and Basil Hummus a try and see for yourself!
