Hazelnut Lemon Crackers | Commercial Dehydrators

Enjoy the interesting combination of hazelnuts and lemon zest in this unusual cracker. Using chia seeds rather than flax seeds produces a crunchier cracker with a lighter taste. If you are incorporating flax, be sure to buy fresh flax seeds to avoid a strong aftertaste. Some recipes, like this one, start the dehydration process at a high temperature for a short time and then reduce the temperature for the remainder of the cooking process. At the higher temperature, the food emits water and remains cool. This method conserves time and also prevents possible fermentation.
