Easy Low Carb Almond Crackers

Eating well doesn't have to be complicated or time-consuming. These 2-ingredient almond crackers are perfect for adding some crunch to your cheese board. These crackers are higher in protein and fat than standard wheat-based water crackers so you don't need to eat as many and they will keep you fuller for longer…

And they are incredibly easy to make.

The Benefits of Almond Crackers

Almond flour is a fantastic alternative to traditional wheat flour, especially for those following a low carb or gluten free diet. It's rich in protein, healthy fats, and fibre, which helps keep you full longer. These crackers can be enjoyed on their own or paired with your favourite low carb dip or cheese.

Ingredients

• 1 egg white
• 1 cup of almond flour
• A pinch of salt
• Your favourite seasoning (e.g., Everything but the Bagel, Italian herb mix)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 160°C.
2. In a bowl, mix together the egg white, almond flour, and salt. Add your chosen seasoning to taste.
3. Place the dough between two sheets of baking paper and roll it out flat until it reaches your desired thickness.
4. Score lines into the dough to form cracker shapes. You can use a fancy pastry wheel if you like
5. Transfer the dough (still on the baking paper) onto a baking tray.
6. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
7. Let the crackers cool completely before breaking them apart along the scored lines.

Tips for the Perfect Crackers

• Seasoning Variations: Try different seasonings to keep your snacks exciting. Italian herbs, garlic powder, or even a pinch of chilli flakes can add a new dimension to your crackers.
• Thickness: Rolling the dough thinner will give you crispier crackers, while a slightly thicker roll will yield a softer bite.
• Storage: Store your almond crackers in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crispy.
