Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour (not almond meal)
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • flaked sea salt (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the crackers.
  2. Make Dough: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, water, ground flaxseed, and fine sea salt. Stir together until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
  3. Prepare for Rolling: Place the dough onto a piece of parchment paper and cover it with a second sheet of parchment paper to prevent sticking and to make rolling easier.
  4. Roll out Dough: Pat the dough down with your hands, then use a rolling pin to roll it out very thin, approximately 1/8 inch thick. Aim for a rectangular shape, but precision isn’t critical.
  5. Add Salt Topping: Remove the top parchment sheet carefully. Sprinkle flaked sea salt evenly over the dough surface, then gently press the salt into the dough with your hands to help it adhere. This step is optional but enhances flavor and appearance.
  6. Cut Crackers: Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into small squares about 1/2 to 1 inch each. For a decorative touch, use a toothpick to create a small hole in the center of each cracker.
  7. Bake Crackers: Transfer the parchment paper with the cut dough onto a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the crackers turn golden brown and become crispy. Note that edge crackers will brown faster; remove those as they brown and continue baking the center pieces.
  8. Cool: Let the crackers cool completely on the baking sheet or on a cooling rack. Cooling ensures maximum crispiness.
  9. Store: Store leftover crackers in an airtight container or sealed bag. They will keep at room temperature in the pantry for 4-5 days.

Notes

  • You can omit the flaked sea salt topping if you prefer less salty crackers.
  • Using almond flour (not almond meal) ensures a finer texture and better dough consistency.
  • The dough should be rolled very thin to achieve a crispy texture.
  • Adjust baking time depending on your oven and thickness of crackers; watch closely to avoid burning.
  • Make sure crackers are completely cooled before storing to maintain crispness.
