Raw Savory Hemp Bread! Low Carbs No guilt!

by Teri Wallace

Raw Hemp Bread (makes 6-8 slices)

Ingredients

3/4 + 1/3 cup organic hemp seeds
3/4 cup organic flax seed, ground in a coffee grinder or spice mill
1 tsp sea salt
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast & your favorite mix of savory herbs n’ spice
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp organic hemp oil
1/4 chopped green onion
1 cup spinach

First, mix the 3/4 hemp seeds and flax in a food processor with the sea salt and the Nutritional Yeast & your desired dry herbs. Add lemon juice, hemp oil, green onion if using, and spinach, and mix again, adding water as needed. You want the mixture to moist and dough-like, but not at all runny or overly sticky.

Remove mix from processor and stir in remaining 1/3 cup hemp seeds. When it’s well combined, check the dough for taste, and add salt, spices, or water as needed.

Flatten to 1/4 inch on two paraflex sheets in your dehydrator. Dehydrate overnight (6-8 hours). Turn the bread over by putting another paraflex sheet over the bread, and then flipping the whole thing. Dehydrate for another 6-8 hours, or until bread is very dry and firm, but still pliable. Cut into slices (we find a pizza roller works the best) and enjoy.

Serve as a sandwich bread, with salads, or as a raw snack with some raw hemp butter!
