Keto Flaxseed Crackers
Keto Flaxseed Crackers are crisp, low-carb snacks made primarily with flax meal, olive oil, and simple seasonings. The dough is rolled thin, pre-cut, and baked until golden, resulting in crunchy crackers with a mild nutty flavor from the flax. Ideal for those following a keto diet or anyone seeking a high-fiber, grain-free alternative to regular crackers.
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.
