Last year I did this INTENSE Candida Cleanse. It was kind of horrible at first, and then I grew used to it. One thing I learned a lot about, though, is that there are certain foods that are VERY powerful at killing parasites and detoxifying the body. I could tell you some gross stories….but I’ll refrain. These foods are : pumpkin seeds, cilantro, garlic, grapefruit, and onions. This recipe has the first 4 in it!
I put it to a vote because I was originally going to call these my Detox Crackers but my husband (and instagram community) vetoed it and went for Citrus Cilantro Crackers. Sure…that sounds more pleasant. I get it. 🙂
These taste amazing! Below I’ll walk you through step-by-step how I make, store, and retoast them.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place the egg, citrus juice, avocado oil, mustard, pumpkin seeds and garlic into a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients and pour those in a section at a time, pulsing each time to combine. When the pumpkin seeds are chopped into about 1/4 of their original size, you have processed the mixture enough and are ready to get the crackers on the baking pan. Line out on your counter a sheet of parchment paper that is large enough to cover your baking sheet. Spray it with nonstick spray (or using your fingers coat it with a light layer of cooking oil). This step makes your job a lot easier because it helps it not to stick! Fold the parchment paper in half and using the palm of your hand or a rolling pin, press out the mixture until it is about 1/4 of an inch thick. Peel back the top layer and lightly score the crackers into squares.
Place in the oven to bake for 15 minutes, or until the edges of the crackers are browned. Allow to FULLY cool!
Once they are cooled, use a sharp and fine knife to press into the score marks you created and give a final cut to the crackers.
I store these in a glass container and will re-toast them if I want them hot. I LOVE them with hummus and also as a scoop for salsa and tuna salad!
