Almond flour is a popular ingredient in keto cooking due to its low carbohydrate content and high healthy fat profile. Unlike traditional wheat flour, almond flour is gluten-free and provides a rich, nutty flavor that enhances the taste of various dishes, including crackers. It’s also a great source of protein and fiber, making it a nutritious option for snacking.

To make your almond flour keto crackers, you will need the following ingredients:

1 cup almond flour: Ensure you use blanched almond flour for the best texture.
1 cup shredded cheese: Cheddar or mozzarella works well, providing flavor and binding.
1/4 teaspoon salt: Adjust to taste.
1-2 tablespoons water: Optional, for binding if the dough is too crumbly.

You can customize your crackers by adding spices or seasonings. Some popular options include:

Garlic powder
Italian herbs (oregano, basil)
Everything bagel seasoning
Cracked black pepper

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine the almond flour, shredded cheese, and salt. Blend until a dough forms. If the dough is too crumbly, add water gradually until it holds together.

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper.
Roll it out to about 1/4 inch thick. Thinner crackers will be crispier.
Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into squares or your desired shape.

Transfer the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 12 minutes, flipping the crackers halfway through for even baking.
Once golden brown, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.

Thickness Matters: Roll the dough evenly to ensure all crackers bake uniformly. Thinner crackers will be crunchier, while thicker ones will be chewier.
Storage: Store your crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate them for longer freshness. You can also freeze them for up to two months.
Re-crisping: If your crackers become soft, reheat them in a preheated oven at 200°F (93°C) for about 5-10 minutes to restore their crunch.

Yes! If you prefer a dairy-free option, you can replace the cheese with one egg and one tablespoon of melted coconut oil. This will still yield a tasty cracker.

These almond flour crackers pair wonderfully with various dips and spreads. Try them with guacamole, homemade cheese spreads, or even as a base for your favorite toppings.

When stored properly, keto crackers can last for about three days at room temperature. For longer storage, consider refrigerating or freezing them.
