Low-Carb Crackers

By youngcbs

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond meal
• 1/4 cup sesame seeds
• 4 oz. shredded cheese (at least half should be a hard cheese such as Parmesan)
• 1 egg white
• 2 teaspoon prepared mustard
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 F.

1. Combine all ingredients. A food processor makes it really easy, but you can use a spoon, or even your hands. Keep combining until the ingredients cling together into a ball.

2. Using your hands, roll dough into a cylinder about 1.5 inches in diameter. Slice with a sharp knife, about three to an inch.

3. Put rounds on a baking sheet covered with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Leave enough space between each to flatten.

4. Using something with a flat bottom such as a measuring cup, flatten until the rounds are a little over 2" wide. Smooth out the edges with fingers.

Bake for about 14-18 minutes, though you might want to check before to see how they are coming along. When they begin to brown, remove from oven and cool. Makes approximately 24 crackers.

Store in a sealed container (a zip-top bag works fine).
