This February, Pep & Lekker returns to the plant-based aisle – not as a pocket-sized savoury nibble, but as a functional cracker designed to support gut health and a gluten-free diet. Made with an ambitious allergy-free recipe, it features 12 plant varieties spanning all six plant groups.

Traditionally, savoury crackers have played a supporting role on lunch plates and cheeseboards, complementing cheeses, chutneys, and pickles rather than taking centre stage. But in a category known for its artisanal values, bold ingredients, and rich flavours, Pep & Lekker is introducing something different – crackers with functional benefits.

These all-natural, plant-based seeded crackers come in two varieties and are packed with fibre, omega-3s, and a good source of protein and magnesium. Made with olive oil instead of palm or vegetable oils, they are gluten-free, menopause-friendly, and contain no added sugar, with natural sweetness from apple purée and chicory inulin.

Each 110g box contains around nine crackers, available in Rosemary and Original flavours, with an RSP of £2.75.
