Spicy Italian Protein Oat Crisps

Who made the rule that oats have to always be eaten like a bowl of oatmeal? 

Not us. 

One pouch of FLAMING OATS® can become something completely unexpected: crunchy, pizza-inspired protein crisps that disappear almost as fast as they come out of the oven. 

Made with just one pack of FLAMING OATS® and water, these baked crisps are packed with 25g of plant protein, loaded with fiber, and baked until perfectly crisp. Top them with your favorite salsa, guacamole, hummus, or add to a beautiful vegan charcuterie board—but don't be surprised if you eat half the batch straight off the baking sheet. 

We're using the Spicy Italian flavor for this recipe because its herbs and spices create a bold, pizza-inspired experience, but here's the fun part: every FLAMING OATS® flavor makes an entirely different cracker. Cheezy Chive? Rich and savory. Chipotle Garlic? Smoky with a kick. Rosemary Garlic? Elegant and herbaceous. The possibilities are endless. 

Rules are overrated. Your snacks shouldn't be.

Ingredients:

• FLAMING OATS® 1 Pack (any flavor)
• Water (8 oz.) (more for thinner consistency)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F
2. Using a high-powered blender or food processors, blend all dry ingredients into a flour.
3. Mix FLAMING OATS® flour with water, stir until smooth and thoroughly blended.
4. Add foil packet of organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil + Hemp Hearts into the mixture, stir thoroughly.
5. Using a teaspoon, spoon small very thin round discs onto parchment paper lined baking sheet. Use the back of the spoon to spread the mixture evenly into round discs. The thinner the discs the crispier they’ll be. Spread the round discs out so they’re not touching.
6. Bake 10 minutes or until crispy.
7. Let cool and enjoy.
   

Useful tips: 

• Spread the batter thinly to make the crisps crispy 
• Optional: Add a sprinkle of fresh herbs to taste — chop finely and sprinkle on top before baking  
• Store the crisps in a dry container for 3–4 days to keep them fresh
