Legume Free Maple & Seaweed Snack Squares

These crispy little squares are proof that the most unexpected ingredients can come together into something genuinely craveable. Layers of toasted nori get a thin binding paste made from arrowroot starch and cassava flour, then a glossy glaze of coconut aminos, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, turmeric, and ginger goes on top before everything hits the oven. The result is a snack with serious depth — umami-rich, lightly sweet, and warmly spiced all at once. For anyone navigating a legume-free lifestyle, snack time can feel like a minefield of soy sauce, edamame, and pea-protein everything, but every single ingredient here is completely in the clear. The cassava and arrowroot base is a clever workaround that holds the nori layers together without any bean-based binders or flours. Baked low and slow until the edges curl and the glaze turns tacky and dark, these squares come out of the oven firm, snappable, and deeply satisfying. Cut them into pieces and serve immediately — they won't last long.
