Sesame, Chia and Flax Seed Snaps

I buy the storebought sesame seed snaps a lot as the whole family loves it! These taste exactly like the storebought stuff – but with extra goodness with chia and flax seeds which add nicely to the crunch! I have tried this recipe with both brown sugar and coconut sugar – both turn out amazing! I find the brown sugar sweeter, and more like the storebought stuff. The coconut sugar version isn’t as sweet and is slightly less crunchy than the brown sugar version (though they are still pretty crunchy – you would only notice if eating them one after another!)

Take out of the oven and leave to cool for a minute or so, then use a pizza cutter or knife to cut into squares whilst mixture is still soft. Wait to cool completely before eating, they will be super crunchy once cool.

Notes

*Some mixture sticks to the top sheet of baking paper depending on the angle or how quick you pull it off.
