Homemade Crunchy Low Carb Crackers

Prepare The Chia Mixture

1. In a small bowl, mix the chia seeds with water. Let them sit for 10-15 minutes until they form a gel-like texture.

Prepare The Dough

1. In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped olives, prepared chia gel, olive oil, and the pinch of salt. Mil well until the dough is blended well.

Roll The Dough

1. Place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper (baking paper). Cover it with another sheet of parchment paper and with a rolling pin, roll out the dough to an even thickness (about 1/8th inch or 4mm)

Add Topping and Cut

1. Remove the top parchment paper and sprinkle extra Parmesan cheese and flaxseed or everything bagel seeds (if using) over the dough, pressing gently to make the toppings stick.
2. Cut the dough into small squares with a sharp knife or use a square shaped cookie cutter.

Bake

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
2. Transfer the parchment paper with the squares to a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes
3. Then, increase the temperature to 450°F (230°C) and bake for another 10 minutes, checking frequently to prevent burning.

Cook and Seperate

1. Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely before gently separating the squares.
