Keto Crackers with Almond Flour 🧀🥑
Ingredients:

2 cups almond flour (blanched, for smooth texture)
1 large egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt (more to taste, optional)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for flavor)
1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional, for added crunch)
Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix the Ingredients:
    In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, salt, and any optional seasonings (garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning).
    Add the beaten egg to the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms. It should come together as a firm dough, but not too sticky.
  3. Roll the Dough:
    Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about 1/8 inch thickness. The thinner you roll the dough, the crispier the crackers will be.
  4. Cut the Crackers:
    Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into square or rectangular cracker shapes. You can also use a cookie cutter for fun shapes.
  1. Bake the Crackers:
    Transfer the cut dough (with parchment paper) onto the prepared baking sheet.
    Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
    Let the crackers cool completely on the baking sheet, as they will crisp up more as they cool.
  2. Store and Enjoy:
    Store the crackers in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy with your favorite keto-friendly dips, cheese, or spreads!
