Yields: 10 dozen 1 inch square crackersPrep Time: 8 minutes
Cook Time: 14-16 minutes
Total Time: 22 minutes
Ingredients
- Large egg, 1
- Table Salt, 0.25 teaspoon
- Black Pepper, 0.5 teaspoon
- Almond Flour, 1.75 cups (168g), blanched and finely ground
- Non-stick spray
Kitchen Tools
- Parchment
- Rolling pin
- Pizza wheel or knife
- Baking Sheet
- Cooling rack
Cooking Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Whisk together the egg, salt, pepper, and any additional spices or add-ins (see "tips," below.)
- Add the almond flour, stirring to make a cohesive dough.
- Place the dough onto a sheet of parchment, or a piece of plastic wrap. Pat it out with your hands, and top with an additional piece of parchment or plastic wrap. Roll the dough out to about 1/8" thickness; it should be about 10" x 12", or larger.
- Remove the top paper, and use a pizza wheel or knife to cut 1" squares. Move the cut crackers, along with their parchment, to the baking sheet. If you've used plastic wrap, spray the pan with non-stick baking spray, and transfer the crackers from the plastic to the pan.
- Bake the crackers for 14 to 16 minutes, until they're light golden brown. The crackers around the perimeter will tend to brown more quickly, so transfer those to a cooling rack and return the pan to the oven to finish baking the remaining center crackers.
- Cool the crackers completely before transferring them to an airtight bag for room-temperature storage.
Notes
- Cheese Crackers: Add 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder, a dash of Tabasco or a pinch of cayenne pepper, and 1 cup finely grated cheese.
- Seedy Crackers: Add 1 to 2 tablespoons sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or the seed blend of your choice.
- Spicy Crackers: Add 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder, plus 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce (e.g., Sriracha, Tabasco, Frank's Red Hot) for extra kick.
- Cinnamon-Sugar Crackers Omit the black pepper, and sprinkle 2 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar over the tops of the crackers before baking.
