Keto Flaxseed Crackers
Description
Keto Flaxseed Crackers combine flax meal with olive oil, salt, pepper, and water to form a pliable dough. This dough is rolled out between parchment paper sheets to a thin and even rectangle, then pre-cut into squares before baking. Baking at 180°C for about 22–25 minutes achieves a golden, crisp texture. Because flaxseed absorbs moisture variably, thickness affects baking time and browning, so rotating the baking sheet can help ensure even cooking.
The crackers have a hearty texture and a subtle earthiness characteristic of flaxseed. They can be flavored additionally with spices like garlic powder, herbs, or parmesan as variations suggest. Serving these crackers alongside dips or cheese works well, offering a crunchy accompaniment that supports keto or low-carb eating.
For best results, adjust cracker thickness and monitor browning closely. Thicker crackers require more baking time, and edge crackers brown faster than center ones. Removing thoroughly browned crackers early and continuing baking the rest helps maintain an even final batch.
Ingredients
- 1 cup flax meal 120g
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅓ cup water 80ml
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl with a spoon. Allow to stand for a couple of minutes and roll into a ball. If the dough feels a touch sticky, dust in a little more flax and on your hands.
- Roll the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper approximately 3mm thick. Remove the top sheet and fold over edges for form a rectangle. Place the top sheet back on top and re-roll. I did this twice to get a good rectangle shape.
- Pre-cut into squares, approximately 4-5cm, with a pizza cutter. If you have offcuts, re-roll and cut.
- Bake 180C / 350F for 22 - 25 minutes or until golden all over. Allow to cool and cut fully.
Notes
- Each serving of 4 crackers contains about 3 grams net carbs; the recipe yields roughly 32 crackers or 8 servings.
- The baking time depends on cracker thickness; thinner crackers cook faster.
- Rotate the baking sheet during baking to ensure even browning.
- If some crackers brown sooner, remove them early and bake remaining pieces longer.
- Optional seasonings include garlic powder, dried herbs, grated parmesan, cumin, za'atar, cayenne, seeds, or finely chopped olives or sun-dried tomatoes.
