Cheesy Almond Crackers
The secret to crispy thin crackers is using a pizza stone so that you can roll out your batter in as many directions as you need, to get it thin enough. Next, you turn the oven off and leave the crackers in for another 10 minutes. Pizza stones are $10-20 and worth every penny if you want to make crackers at home (which you will want to because the majority of crackers on the market use refined sugar, refined oil, table salt and often modified milk ingredients).
(makes 60-80 crackers)
What you will need:
2 1/2 cups almond flour
1/2- 1 tsp unrefined salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp ground flax
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup ghee/butter/coconut oil
Optional: pressed garlic
How to do it:
Step 1: Mix ground flax with 3/4 cup water and let stand.
Step 2: Mix almond flour, unrefined salt and baking soda.
Step 3: Mix butter (you may have to melt it) in with the flax/water mix and then stir into the dry ingredients.
Step 4: Form the batter into a ball and then split in half.
Step 5: Put parchment paper on a pizza stone (or cookie sheet) and press out half of the batter into a circle as evenly and thin as you can with your hands.
Step 6: Cover the dough with another piece of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to make it thinner and smoother.
Step 7: Cut into squares or triangles with a knife or pizza slicer.
Step 8: Prick each cracker with 3 pricks and sprinkle with salt.
Step 9: Bake @ 350 degrees F for 25 minutes.
Step 10: Turn the oven off and leave the crackers in for another 10 minutes.
