Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup almond flour/meal
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar (or mix of cheddar & mozz)
- 1 oz cream cheese
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp paprika
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F / 200° C
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour and salt. Add egg and whisk until well-combined.
- In a nonstick pan (or microwave-safe bowl), heat cheddar, mozzarella, and cream cheese until melted.
- Add melted cheeses to dry ingredients and, using hands, knead together until fully-incorporated. If the dough becomes too difficult to work with, return all ingredients to pan or microwave to reheat.
- Lay one piece of parchment down, placing dough in the center. Lay the other piece down,and lightly press down.
- Using a rolling pin, roll the dough until it is an even layer. The dough should be quite thin. Remove top piece of parchment paper. Carefully slide a baking tray beneath the parchment paper with the dough on top.
- Using a pizza cutter, gently cut crackers into the desired size. Sprinkle coarse salt to the top of the dough.
- Bake crackers for 7 minutes.
- Remove crackers from oven and allow to cool slightly.
- Using a spatula, flip all crackers over. It may be necessary to re-cut some of the crackers with a pizza cutter as they may have melted together while baking.
- Return crackers to oven and bake for another 3-5 minutes.
- Allow the crackers to cool completely before breaking apart and enjoying!
