Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 2 tbsp water (flax egg substitute)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 3 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast (for a cheesy flavor)
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, flaxseed meal (with water), garlic powder, oregano, nutritional yeast, and salt. Add 3 tbsp of water and stir well until a smooth dough forms.
Step 3: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to about ¼-inch thickness.
Step 4: For extra flavor, sprinkle a little more dried oregano on top of the dough (optional).
Step 5: Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into squares of your desired size (about 1-1.2 inches). This recipe yields roughly 30 crackers.
Step 6: Arrange the dough squares on the baking sheet, ensuring there’s enough space between them so they don’t stick together during baking.
Step 7: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
Step 8: Let the crackers cool completely on the baking sheet before enjoying.
