Low Carb Keto Cheesy Crackers

Jennifer has a great recipe here. This snack is perfect for dipping or just eating on their own. You just have to make sure you make enough of them.

You can't find all the perfect keto foods and snacks at the store, but luckily there are a lot of great recipes for making just about anything you want. An usually much healthier too.

So if you have 20 or 25 minutes you can make this treat that is better than any cheesy snack cracker at the store.

You start by mixing all the cheeses and flour in a microwave safe bowl and cook them in the microwave fore one minute. That get the mix soft enough to roll out to the thickness desired.

Mix the rest of the spices and the egg in. the tricky part here is to make sure the cheese mixture has cooled enough so the egg does not cook.

Put your ball of dough on some parchment paper and roll it out to a nice cracker thickness. Cut with a pizza wheel cutter to size and in the oven they go. 450°F 5 minutes turn over and 5 minutes more. It may take a little longer if you like a thicker cracker.

Low Carb Cheese Crackers Recipe (Keto Friendly)

Ingredients

• 2 Cups Cheese of your choice (I used a Parmesan-Romano mix along with some swiss and cheddar)
• 1 cup Almond Flour
• 2 oz Cream Cheese
• 1 egg
• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon Rosemary (or a seasoning of your choice such as basil, chives, garlic, dill weed, spicy chili etc…)

Instructions

1. Mix all the cheeses (including the cream cheese) along with the almond flour in a microwave safe bowl and cook it for exactly one minute.
2. Immediately stir the ingredients until the almond flour and cheeses have combined fully. You want the cheese to be partially melted (see photo)
3. Allow this to cool for a few minutes because if you put the egg in these ingredients too soon it will cook the egg.
4. Now add the egg, sea salt and seasoning of your choice. I decided to cut up some fresh rosemary I had on hand. You want to add about a teaspoon of your favorite seasoning unless it's a spicy mix. I would add only about a ½ teaspoon for spicy seasonings.
5. Mix it together until all the ingredients is fully combined. If you cheese has gotten too hard or it's too hard to mix, you can microwave your cheese for another 20 seconds to get it soft again.
6. Now you will place the ball of dough on a large sheet of parchment paper. Then place another sheet of parchment paper of equal size on top of the ball of dough.
7. You can use your hands or a rolling pin to spread the dough out into a thin layer. It spread so easily that I used my hands to have more control and keep the dough inside the square piece of parchment paper. Make sure the parchment paper is the same size as your baking sheet.
8. Next use a pizza cutter to cut the crackers into small squares as seen in the photos.
9. Bake these crackers on each side at 450 degrees for about 5 or 6 minutes on each side. If the crackers are thin, you will cook them about 5 minutes on each side but if the dough is thick, it may take 7 to 9 minutes to get the crispy cracker texture you are looking for. When you keep the dough on the parchment paper it's really easy to flip it over while it's hot after cooking it on the first side. I ended up using the pizza cutter again to define the lines on the flip side too. Feel free to leave the crackers in there a bit longer (but watch them closely) if you love a very crispy texture.
10. Allow the crackers to cool for about 5 minutes and they are ready to eat!
