Best Ever Low Carb Crackers NOT TESTED
By Shirl
same
- tweaked it to make, I have to say, the BEST LC cracker I have tasted! I am so amazed how much they taste like a HC herb cracker! Here is the recipe:
- Herb/Parmesan Crackers:
- Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup Almond Flour
- 1/2 cup Splendid Bake Mix (Jennifer Eloff Recipe at bottom of this recipe)
- 2 teas. sweetener
- 1 egg white
- 3/8 teas. salt
- 1/8 teas. garlic powder
- 1/8 teas. onion powder
- 1 to 2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese (more or less to taste. I used a heaping Tbs)
- 2 teas. un-toasted sesame seeds
- 2 Tbs softened butter
- 1/2 Tbs Italian herbs of choice (I used an herb mixture of oregano and basil......also use more herbs if you want a stronger herb taste)
- Mix all ingredients well in bowl. Chill dough for 20 minutes.
- Take about 1/2 teas. of dough, roll into a ball and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Do this until the cookie sheet is filled, placing the dough balls about 1 1/2 inches apart.
- Using the bottom of a baking powder can or any item that has a 1/8" height rim around like the baking powder can, place a small piece of plastic wrap on each dough ball and press down until the can hits the cookie sheet.
- Peel off plastic and move to the next dough ball until all are have been pressed and shaped.
- Prick with fork.
- Bake at 325 F for 15 -20 minutes, or until golden brown. After 15 minutes, check every minute or so to make sure they don't get too browned.
- Cool and store in a air tight container at room temp. or freeze for longer storage.
