Cuisine: Keto
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup flaxseed meal
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the crackers from sticking.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of almond flour, 1/4 cup of flaxseed meal, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder. Stir the dry ingredients together until they are evenly mixed.
- Gradually add 1/4 cup of water to the dry mixture. Stir continuously until the mixture forms a dough. If the dough is too crumbly, add a little more water, one teaspoon at a time, until it holds together well.
- Transfer the dough onto the lined baking sheet. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Make sure the dough is evenly spread to ensure uniform baking.
- Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, score the rolled-out dough into squares or rectangles, creating the shape of the crackers. This will make it easier to break them apart after baking.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes, or until the edges of the crackers are golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Once baked, remove the crackers from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Then, carefully break them apart along the scored lines.
- Let the crackers cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.
Tips
- Consistency is Key: Make sure your dough is not too wet or too dry. The right moisture level ensures crispy, well-formed crackers.
- Roll Thin for Maximum Crunch: The thinner you roll the dough, the crispier your crackers will be. Aim for about 1/8 inch thickness.
- Watch Carefully While Baking: Keto crackers can go from perfectly golden to burnt quickly. Keep a close eye on them in the last few minutes of baking.
- Customize Your Flavor: Experiment with different herbs and spices like rosemary, thyme, or everything bagel seasoning to keep things interesting.
- Cool Completely: Let the crackers cool entirely on a wire rack to ensure maximum crispness. Rushing this step can make them soggy.
- Storage Matters: Store in an airtight container to maintain their crunch. If they lose crispness, a quick 2-3 minute re-crisp in the oven can bring them back to life!
