- More seeds to sprinkle
Flour mixture:

- 25 g (3 tbsp) tapioca flour (see notes)

Instructions
- You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Add the whole seeds to a small/medium bowl and pour hot water over them. Mix with a spoon and let it rest for about 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 360 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
- Meanwhile, add the brown rice flour, chickpea flour, tapioca flour, psyllium husk powder, ground chia seeds, salt, and baking powder to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the water, apple cider vinegar, and the wet seed mixture and stir with a spoon. Then use your hands to knead the dough for a few minutes. You can also use a hand mixer.
- Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and shape each into a roll.
- Sprinkle the parchment paper (or silicone mat) with a thin layer of seeds of choice and place the 6 rolls on it. Sprinkle the tops with more seeds.
- Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes and enjoy!
Notes
- Chickpea flour: I made the recipe with once with oat flour and it turned out good, but the result with chickpea flour was even better.
- Tapioca flour: You can use arrowroot flour instead.
- Seeds: Use any whole seeds of choice. Pumpkin seeds are amazing too!
