DIRECTIONS FOR FLAXSEED CHIPS & CUPS

1.  Add salt into the flaxseed meal and mix well.

2.  Boil the water in a pot and once it has come to a boil, remove pot and place on table.

3.  Add the flaxseed mix and stir with a wooden spoon until it becomes a dough.

4.  Transfer the dough to a big bowl or tabletop and spread it so that it can cool down faster. It is quite hot to knead the dough immediately so you can let it cool down a bit before kneading for 1 minute.

5.  Divide dough into 4 portions and shape them into balls.

6.  Place one ball of dough on a parchment paper and cover with another parchment paper. Flatten the dough with your hands.

7.  Roll dough into a thin layer and cut into triangular shapes. Place cut dough on baking tray lined with parchment paper.

8.  Bake at the middle rack at 350 F or 180 C for about 15 to 20 mins or until browned and crispy.

9.  Cool completely before storing in airtight containers. These chips can be reheated in oven to crisp up again.

10.  For flaxseed cups, use a suitable sized ramekin to cut into round shapes then place the cut dough into muffin tins.

11.  Bake at middle rack at 350F or 180C for about 20 mins or until browned and crispy.

12.  Set aside to cool.
