A great recipe for a seed cracker helps keeps me on the straight and narrow with my low carb lifestyle. It means that get to enjoy foods such as cheese platters and wonderful dips and nibbles. This Low Carb Almond Seed Crackers recipe is delicious and is sure to become a favorite of yours. It is a really easy recipe to make and the resulting cracker compliments lots of foods. Try them simply with cheese or pate or serve them with your favorite dip. They have quite a neutral flavor so this makes them really versatile. My carb loving friends absolutely love these as well. I love to have a constant supply of these, which is why I make a reasonably large sized batch of them.
Cracker Variations
These crackers have an almond base so if you are after a nut free version you might want to make these linseed based Low Carb Seed Crackers. The flavors of both of these crackers is quite different. If you find that linseed can be a little strong in flavor then these almond based crackers might be a better choice for you. I personally find that I still like to make both recipes as they both make brilliant crackers. If I ever feel that I am consuming too many nuts, I make these linseed based, ‘nut free,’ version of Low Carb Seed Crackers.

A great recipe. Love them with cheese.
Sorry for my ignorance, but does this make 10 or is it 10 per serve, how many should this actually make? Thanks Carolyn 🙂
Hi Carolyn
This recipe makes a lot of crackers but will depend on the size you make them. I usually cut them about 2cm x 2cm or 1 inch square and get about 90-100 crackers but your amount might differ if you make them thicker and larger, or smaller. Regardless though, the nutritional calculations were based on 1 of 10 serves.
