Have you been trying to lose weight like me but find it difficult to curb the hunger between meals?

One of my New Years resolutions this year is to lose a few pounds and I think this recipe will help.

These tasty crackers are gluten free and full of fiber and nutrients!

There's no white flour and no white sugar in this recipe.

I made 1/2 of my crackers with dried cranberries and the other half without.

I like to make a batch on the weekend and then I can just grab a bag out of the freezer on my way out the door, this keeps me from snacking on unhealthy food at work.

I make my own quinoa flour and brown rice flour by grinding the whole grains in a coffee grinder I purchased specifically for this.

Step 1: Ingredients

You will need the following:

____________________________________

2 cups Quinoa flour

2 cups Brown rice flour

1 whole Sweet potato

2 large eggs

3 Tablespoons molasses (or honey)

1/3 cup Raisins or dried cranberries

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 cup olive oil

You can add chopped pecans if you like.

Step 2: Cook Sweet Potato

Peel sweet potato. Cut up and place in glass bowl.
Cover with water.
Microwave for 8-10 minutes until soft.

Allow to cool for 30 minutes.

Measure out 2 cups cooked, drained sweet potato.

Step 3: Blend

In blender add 1/4 cup olive oil, 3 tablespoons molasses and 2 large eggs.

Blend for 30 seconds.

Add 2 cups blended sweet potato.

Blend well for 1 minute.

Step 4: Mix Together

In a large mixing bowl, place 2 cups brown rice flour and 1-1/2 cups quinoa flour. (or the other way around)

You will need 3-1/2 cups flour total.

Add 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp baking soda.

Stir well.

Add the sweet potato/egg mixture.

Stir with large spoon until blended. Add another spoon of quinoa flour if the dough is sticky.

At this point, stir in 1/3 cup raisins or dried cranberries and/or chopped pecans if you choose.
