2 cups Almond Flour, blanched
1 teaspoon Onion, dried, minced
½ teaspoon your favorite dried herb (see *note below for suggestions)
½ teaspoon Sea Salt
1 tablespoon Cold Pressed Olive Oil
1 large Organic Pastured Egg
1 teaspoon Filtered Water
Directions

2. In a large bowl, combine almond flour, dried onion, herbs and salt
3. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, egg and water until well blended
4. Stir wet ingredients into almond flour mixture until thoroughly combined
5. Use your hands to knead the dough into a ball
6. Place the dough ball between two large sheets of parchment paper and roll out to ⅛ inch thickness
7. Remove top piece of parchment paper
8. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, trim the dough to form an even rectangle shape
9. Set aside scraps
10. Cut dough into 2×2 inch squares
11. Do not remove cut dough squares
12. Instead, transfer the entire sheet of parchment with dough onto baking sheet
13. Make a small dough ball out of the scraps and re-roll and cut
14. Place on second baking sheet
15. If you enjoy a salty cracker, be sure to lightly sprinkle crackers with a touch of sea salt before placing into the oven
16. Bake for approximately 12 minutes, until crackers along the outer edge of the baking sheet are lightly golden
17. Turn off oven and open oven door for just a minute to allow majority of heat to escape
18. Close oven door and allow crackers to sit in hot oven another 2 minutes to finish crisping up
19. Remove crackers from oven and allow them to cool completely on baking sheet for about 30 minutes
*Notes:
• Use any type of dried herb (or dried herb blend) you desire such as thyme, Italian seasoning, rosemary, parsley, etc. If using fresh herbs, you’ll want to mince them first and increase the measurement to 1 teaspoon.
• To keep crackers crispy, store in an airtight container in the freezer. You can eat them cold straight from the freezer, or bring to room temp before serving.
• Serve with your favorite healthy dips and toppings, or enjoy these delicious little crackers solo when you feel the urge for a healthy crunchy snack.
