Origins
Knekkebrød, literally "crunch bread" or "breaking bread," traces its roots to Viking-era Norway, when crispbread was baked once and stored for months as a shelf-stable staple. Today it's found in virtually every Norwegian home, eaten at every meal. Norwegian Baked was founded in Brooklyn to bring this Scandinavian tradition to US kitchens, using the founder's family recipe and fully organic ingredients.
Taste: Nutty, Toasty.

How to enjoy

- Top with avocado, sea salt, and chili flakes for a Scandinavian avocado toast
- Borderless Bite: Top with any jam from KINKATSU LOBO's lineup - yuzu, plus a smidge of goat cheese for a seriously nutty, crispy, citrusy, and creamy cracker stack.
