Chewy Flax Seed Squares

A couple days ago, we made Chewy Flax Seed Squares , you mix them up and then put them in the dehydrator, as they start to get harder, you turn them over and let them sit until they are to the crunchiness you like them, when ours start getting crunchy, they start mysteriously disappearing, due to some unknown cause :) like kids.
Here are some pics of them.

Notice the mysterious holes.

Here is one of the culprits.





Here is the recipe

1. Soak 2 cups flax seed in 4 cups of freshly juiced apple juice in a very large bowl. Soak for about 4 hours or over night. If you do not have a juicer, you could use purified water sweetened with raw honey to taste.
2. Soak 2 cups oat groats over night (or they can be soaked for up to three days, changing the water each day). You can also substitute the oat groats with a combination of soaked buckwheat , quinoa, whole barley or seeds.
3. Drain water from soaked grains and put in Vita-Mix or blender with 2 cups water. Blend well until it is a smooth thick mixture. You could do one cup of groats and water at a time so it is not too hard on t he blender. Add this mixture to the bowl of soaked flax seeds. You can add more liquid if necessary.
4. Now start adding all the goodies you desire. Add to the bowl 1-2 cups chopped dates, If you use the squished dates, blend them up with the groats in the blender.
5. Add 1-2 cups raisins, depending on how generous you are feeling.
6. Add nuts of your choice, e.g. chopped almonds and walnuts- at least 1 cup but 2 would be better.
7. Add anything else that you have on hand, e.g. sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, tibetan goji berries. If you don't have these goodies, leave them out. You can make these squares as simple or as extravagant as you are able.
8. Mix it all together and spread out smoothly about 1/8" thick on teflex sheets. It usually fills about 4 teflex sheets.
9. Dehydrate on teflex sheets for about four hours. Than flip them over on to the mesh trays and continue dehydrating over night or for about 12-24 hours, depending on whether you like them chewy or very crisp.
10.When ready , cut into squares and store.

Our dehydrator does not have teflex sheets, so we use plastic wrap or wax paper so it does not go throught the holes.
