Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups blanched almond flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (or seasoning of choice)
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder (optional, for light puff)
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Topping
- Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, salt, garlic powder, and baking powder if you choose to use it. This creates a seasoned base for your crackers.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Add the beaten egg and olive oil to the dry mix. Stir thoroughly until a soft dough forms, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Roll Out Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out evenly to about 1/8 inch thickness or thinner for crispier crackers.
- Cut Crackers: Carefully remove the top parchment layer. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 1-inch squares to form individual crackers.
- Season and Bake: Sprinkle the cut dough squares with flaky sea salt if desired. Transfer the entire parchment sheet with crackers onto the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
- Cool and Store: Allow the crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet to crisp up fully. Once cooled, break them apart and store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Notes
- If you prefer fluffier crackers, include the baking powder in your dry ingredients.
- Roll the dough thinner for extra crispy crackers.
- Feel free to customize seasonings; try rosemary, paprika, or nutritional yeast for different flavors.
- Store crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- Ensure dough is evenly rolled to avoid uneven baking.
