Almond Flour Crackers - EASY
These almond flour crackers offer a crunchy texture with a nutty base made from superfine almond flour and eggs. Seasoned simply with salt and pepper, they can be cut into rounds or squares and baked until crisp. Optional parmesan topping adds a savory richness. They're a practical low-carb snack that stays crunchy for days and can be refreshed in the oven if needed.
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour 200g (superfine!!!) if using ground almonds or coarse almond flour see recipe change below
- 2 egg 1 egg only if using ground almonds, medium
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Optional Topping
- ½ cup parmesan 40g, grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.
- Blend the superfine almond flour and 2 medium eggs (or ground almonds and 1 medium egg) plus pepper and salt in a food processor until a dough forms.
- Roll out the dough THINLY between 2 pieces of parchment paper. I found that the almond flour dough was quite firm, so if you decide to make the almond flour version, use some elbow grease to flatten it.
- Remove the top paper.
- Use a small glass or cookie cutter to cut the dough into shapes. I used a 5 cm diameter glass to make 40 round crackers (they weighed around 6 grams each). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. A quicker way is to pre-cut the dough into squares or diamonds with a knife or pizza cutter. In this case, leave the dough on the same baking paper you have rolled it out on.
- Sprinkle the optional parmesan over the crackers.
- If making without parmesan, option to sprinkle over more sea salt and cracked black pepper.
- Bake for 12 minutes or until lightly browned. The baking duration depends on how thin or thick you have rolled the dough.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool down.
- If you have opted for pre-cutting the dough, break the crackers into single pieces.
Notes
- Use superfine almond flour for best dough texture; coarser almond flour may require adjusting egg quantity.
- Reheat crackers in a preheated oven to restore their crunch if they soften with storage.
- Try topping with parmesan, herbs like rosemary or thyme, nutritional yeast, or sesame seeds for flavor variations.
- Roll the dough between parchment paper and cut shapes before baking to make handling easier.
- Store crackers in an airtight container for up to one week.
