    Lavash Crackers

    I'm always on the lookout for delicious oil-free crackers. But, after eating rice cakes and dry crackers, I had an epiphany. What if I took oil-free lavash bread and made my crackers? Lavash bread is one of my favorites to make sandwiches, wraps, and flatbread pizzas. So, after playing with a few ideas, I started experimenting with making lavash crackers. And, to my surprise, I created oil-free lavash crackers in under 10 minutes! 

    When I was little, my nickname was Cracker because I only ate Ritz crackers. My mom struggled to get me to eat anything but crackers. As I aged, my love for Ritz crackers diminished, but my passion for crackers and anything savory remains with me. 

    What is lavash bread?

    Lavash is a large, thin, soft flatbread made with flour, water, yeast, and salt. Not only is lavash bread oil-free, but it is also egg and dairy-free. In addition, its soft texture and slightly rough surface make it perfect for various uses.

    What are lavash crackers? 

    Not only is it easy to transform lavash bread into lavash crackers, but the process also takes less than 10 minutes, including cooking time. Lavash crackers are crackers made from lavash bread.

    But what I love most about this simple recipe is the versatility with seasonings and flavors to make unique, tasty crackers for any occasion. 

    Another bonus is one piece of lavash bread makes 12 crackers. 

    Suggested Lavash bread brands (oil-free)

    One of my favorite lavash bread is Trader Joe's brand, but there are several other types of Lavash available at various stores nationwide. 

    • Atoria's whole grain lavash (I used this one)
    • Kermanig Lavash 
    • Joseph's whole wheat lavash 
    • Wrap n Roll Nature's Way Lavash 
    • Ara-z Lavash
    • Organic whole-wheat Lavash
    • Trader Joe's Lavash

    How to make lavash crackers

    First, choose an oil-free lavash bread. I used Atoria's whole grain lavash I found at Sprouts Market. 

    What is lavash?

    Ingredients

    • Lavash Bread
    • Aquafaba (the fluid in a can of chickpeas)
    • Choice of seasonings

    For this lavash cracker recipe, I chose Herbes De Provence, a combination of an aromatic mixture of dried Provençal herbs and spices, which traditionally include thyme, basil, rosemary, tarragon, marjoram, oregano, and bay leaf.  

    Other suggested seasoning combinations:

    • Italian Seasoning Blend
    • Lemon Zest and Basil
    • Dill and Garlic Powder
    • Trader Joe's Citrus Blend
    • Za'atar Seasoning Blend
    • Trader Joe's Green Goddess Seasoning Blend
    • Everything Bagel Seasoning
    • Vegan Parmesan Cheese

    Then, lay the lavash bread on a solid surface. Using a basting brush, brush aquafaba all over the surface of the lavash and season the bread with the chosen seasoning.

    Next, using a round biscuit or cookie cutter, cut 12 equal-sized crackers. Since I wanted large crackers, I chose a larger-sized circle.

    But, using a tiny cutter yields more crackers and reduced cooking time. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees, and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

    • Place the 12 lavash crackers on the baking sheet and cook for 5 minutes in a 400-degree oven. 

    baking the crackers

    Once baked, remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving.

    • Add to a charcuterie board with fruits, vegan dips, vegetables, and nuts
    • Nut butter
    • Eat plain as a snack

    TIPS

    • Brush aquafaba lightly over the top of the bread. This is so the seasoning sticks. Do not get the bread too wet.
    • Choose any unique seasoning blend to suit your preference or to pair with your dip or meal
    • Use a tiny cookie cutter to make oyster crackers for soups, chilies, and stews. Cut baking time in half or more. 
    • Use animal or holiday cookie cutters for unique party shapes for children or festive parties.
    • For a summertime flavor, skip the aquafaba and use lemon or lime juice to wet the bread for a citrusy cracker.
    • Use a spray bottle instead of a basting brush to dampen the lavash bread before adding the seasoning.

    FAQ

    Can you use freeze lavash crackers?

    • Use lavash bread within 10-12 days of opening the package. Or freeze up to 8 months. However, it is not recommended to freeze the cooked crackers.

    How do you soften Lavash?

    • Misting lavash bread and placing a towel over its top moistens the bread.
