Can you share the recipe?

Simply 1 1/4 cup unprocessed bran, 1/8 cup rye flour, and enough water to mix to a thick batter..salt or spices optional.  Spread out on parchment paper covered cookie sheet. bake at 350 until dry enough to peel paper off. then flip over turn off oven let it dry about 15 to 20 minutes.

How many servings and what are your carb counts Lilyzin??  I'm thinking the unprocessed bran is low but what is the rye flour in carb counts?  It sounds pretty easy to make and that is my favorite kind of recipe    I'm wondering to if flax could be used in it's place?

I found this nutrition info and rye flour looks pretty high in carbs:  http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/cereal-grains-and-pasta/5728/2

Welcome Lily Have you read the book?

[lilyzin]

same servings and carbs as 3.5 OZ GG CRISP...If you read gg crisp label they use rye as well..small amount spread over 10 servings

more economical for those that cant afford 16 dollars a pound

There are lots of cracker recipes.There is one on the forum for crackers made with sunflower seeds.Goldenflax which is a Zero and unblanched almond flour at 4 carbs per cup are also a good choice.  I prefer to make my own products because of the costs of prepackaged low carb products.Thats why I wrote the Bakery Book.I wanted moms to still be able to bake cookies with their kids while being on the FTS plan.(bread,cakes ,pies,ice cream,candies,and doughnuts too )

You are right...1/8 cup isn't much for 10 servings    I'm assuming it is used basically for a binding agent.  That is why I was just thinking out loud as to if something lower in net carbs could be use in it's place?  It probably would change the taste though....   

I did try the GG crisps when I first started this lifestyle but it isn't my favorite so I just don't bother with them.  I'm all about savings though...I'm with you there     What did you say the carb count was for each serving?

Ty I will try some of the other cracker recipes as well . These are slightly over 2 net carbs..but a manufacturer would round down to 2.
Thanks for all your help and suggestions
