Raw Halvah Crackers/Rolls (Sweet)

 Halvah can also be made with sunflower seeds, not sesame seeds. It has its own distinct flavor and this is the halvah I grew up on, although it was very sweet and unhealthy.

Raw Halvah Crackers (Sweet):
  • 1 cup of soaked sunflower seeds (you can use sesame seeds)
  • 4 tbsp coconut nectar or 10 small dates or other sweetener (can add more if you want it sweeter)
  • 1/3 cup of chia seeds
  • 2/3 cup of water
  1. Mix the chia seeds with water and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Blend the sunflower seeds and the sweetener in a high speed blender until smooth (I couldn't get it totally smooth because of the small volume but that is OK).
  3. Add the chia mix to the sunflower seed mix and spread out on teflex sheets and dehydrate for about 6-7 hours, flipping halfway for a pliable mix that you can roll up or 10-12 hours for a cracker like texture. 
  4. To serve, make some dessert dip or roll them up in cacao nibs.
