Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups blanched almond flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (or seasoning of choice)
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder (optional, for light puff)
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Topping
- Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, salt, garlic powder, and baking powder (if using) until well blended.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the beaten egg and olive oil to the dry mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Roll Dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out evenly to about ⅛ inch thickness or thinner, ensuring an even bake and crispness.
- Cut Crackers: Remove the top parchment sheet and use a knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into 1-inch squares for uniform crackers.
- Season & Bake: Sprinkle the cut dough squares with flaky sea salt if desired, transfer to the baking sheet, and bake for 15–20 minutes until the edges turn golden brown.
- Cool & Store: Allow the crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet; they will crisp up further as they cool. Once cooled, break apart and store in an airtight container.
Notes
- For a lighter texture, include the optional baking powder.
- Feel free to customize seasoning by adding herbs like rosemary or spices like paprika.
- Store crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- If dough is too sticky, chill briefly before rolling.
- Ensure even rolling thickness to promote uniform baking and avoid burning.
