Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 medium zucchini, grated and moisture squeezed out
  • 1 cup almond flour (or oat flour)
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • 1 egg

Seasonings

  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Toppings

  • Sesame seeds (for topping, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure the crackers don’t stick.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the grated and well-drained zucchini with almond flour, egg, Parmesan cheese (if using), and all the seasonings. Stir until you have a sticky dough mixture.
  3. Shape Dough: Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Press or roll it out evenly into a thin, flat rectangle approximately 1/8 inch thick for an even bake and crisp texture.
  4. Score Crackers: Using a knife or pizza cutter, score the dough into cracker-sized squares. This will make it easier to break apart after baking.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top if desired, adding an extra touch of flavor and crunch.
  6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the crackers turn golden and crisp around the edges. Let cool slightly before breaking apart along the scored lines.

Notes

  • Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the zucchini to prevent sogginess.
  • Almond flour keeps the recipe gluten-free, but oat flour can be used as a substitute if preferred.
  • Parmesan cheese is optional and adds extra flavor; omit for a dairy-free version.
  • Store crackers in an airtight container for up to 3 days for maximum crispness.
  • These crackers pair well with dips like hummus or guacamole for a healthy snack.
