Ingredients 🛒
- 1 cup blanched almond flour
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1–2 tbsp water (optional, only if dough is too crumbly)
Notes:
- Use blanched almond flour, not almond meal, to prevent dense, heavy crackers.
- Skip water unless needed for binding.
Instructions 👩🍳
1. Preheat Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make the Dough
Combine almond flour, shredded cheese, and salt in a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend until a dough forms. If too crumbly, add 1–2 tablespoons of water.
3. Roll Out the Dough
Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out to about 1/4 inch thick. Use a pizza cutter to slice into squares for your crackers.
4. Bake
Place crackers on the prepared sheet. Bake 12 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove from oven and let cool completely—they will crisp up as they cool.
Tips & Variations 🔄
- Crispier crackers: Roll the dough thinner.
- Even cuts: Use a pizza cutter for uniform squares.
- Don’t overbake: Edges should be golden, not dark brown.
- Extra flavor: Add spices like smoked paprika, oregano, or basil.
- Cheese-free version: Use 1 egg + 1 tbsp melted coconut oil instead of cheese.
Storage & Shelf Life ❄️
- Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Refrigerator: Keeps longer, about a week.
- Freezer: Up to 2 months in a ziplock bag. Reheat in the oven to crisp up after thawing.
