Low Carb Healthy Crackers

These delicious crackers are absolutely perfect for when you want a plain tasting cracker, a little like a water cracker or Lavosh crackers. Ideal to use in a cheese platter, pate, for a healthy snack, or to have with your favorite dip. Made very simply from almond flour/meal, an egg, olive oil and salt, these are so easy to make and will become a favorite recipe of yours, especially if you are a cheese fiend like I am. I have given you the option of adding sesame seeds or poppy seeds to create more of a Lavosh style cracker. You could also cut the crackers in longer, slimmer rectangles, to emulate Lavosh crackers as well.

Instructions For Rolling Out The Dough

Make sure you follow my usual instructions for rolling out a gluten free dough like this out, to prevent the dough from sticking to everything, including the rolling pin. It will also help you get a lovely even surface which will also help you to cut the crackers out evenly. The oil in this recipe does make it a little easier to handle but I would still roll the dough out between 2 sheets of quality baking paper.

How to Roll out your Cracker Dough

It’s funny how I would never have thought of making my own crackers in the past. It is only through making big changes to the way that I eat and trying to avoid processed foods, sugar etc, that I now make a lot of things like this myself. There is definitely no compromise with the replacement home made cracker and these crackers are better and healthier than store bought crackers. Even my non low carb friends who come over to our house, eat all of the variations of my low carb crackers over any thing else that might be on offer. These Low Carb Healthy Crackers are simply healthy, nutritious, preservative free ‘artisan’ crackers that many people would pay a lot of money to buy. This is pure, good unadulterated food at it’s best and I will never go back to buying processed crackers again.
