Spinach & Sesame Crackers Recipe (Review + Giveaway of The Veginner’s Cookbook!)

Spinach & Sesame vegan cracker recipe. Plus a giveaway of the new veginner's cookbook!

Recipes, Snacks / Sides | February 22, 2018 | By

If there’s one thing I’ve always wanted to cook, but never had the courage to try it would be: vegan crackers. I’m not sure why I thought it was so difficult (maybe because boxed crackers cost so much, so I assumed!?). Either way, these Spinach & Sesame Crackers are everything you’ve wanted from a cracker. Best of all, I’m giving away a copy of The Veginner’s Cookbook!

This all started when I received a copy of ElephantasticVegan’s new book: The Veginner’s Cookbook!

First of all: Holy cow.

We’re talkin’ 80+ recipes including:

  • Basics
  • Breakfast
  • Soups
  • Main Meals
  • Breads
  • Snacks & Party Food
  • Sauces & Dressings
  • Desserts

Best of all?

Every single recipe has a beautiful color picture alongside it. (I loathe cookbooks without pictures.. Why do I have to guess what it’s gonna look like!?)

After weeks of recipe deliberation, I finally decided to recreate her Spinach & Sesame crackers on Serving Realness. Like I said, I had been dying to try making vegan crackers!

Vegan Spinach & Sesame Crackers: Dangerously Easy

Now, when I say this recipe was easy: I’m being dead-serious.

I expected days of kneading, hours of baking, and weeks of waiting.

What did I get instead?

A 35 minute recipe that yielded the most beautiful green crackers I’ve ever seen (bye store-bought!).

Furthermore, I wanted to try Miyoko’s famous artisan cheese, and this was the perfect excuse.

Guys, I can’t even put into words how amazing this cheese was. We totally scarfed the entire wheel down in one sitting. It’s that good!

    Thank you so much for sharing, Nick! I love the video!! I’m so glad you like the spinach crackers and the book in general! <3 The Miyoko's sundried tomato garlic cheese wheel looks like the perfect addition! I can't wait until Miyoko's cheeses are sold where I live. I've been wanting to try that one for ages!

    A dish I used to make for special occasions and would love to see veganized is Beef Wellington.

    Hi Nick this looks like a great way to know exactly what is in your crackers! One recipe I always crave that I have yet to find a good vegan sub for is a chicken pot pie of all things! Any ideas?
