Crispy Low Carb Parmesan Almond Crackers

yield: 5 SERVINGS

prep time: 5 MINUTES

cook time: 20 MINUTES

total time: 25 MINUTES

Ingredients

1/2 cup sliced almonds, lightly crushed using your hands (not the roasted variety)
5 oz parmesan cheese block, finely shredded

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Spread half the parmesan cheese onto the prepared pan creating a rectangle that's approximately 8" x 14". Evenly sprinkle the gently crushed, sliced almonds over the cheese. Layer the remaining cheese over the almonds. Use your hands to push any stray bits into the rectangle forming an even edge.

Bake for 10 minutes (cheese will be bubbly and melting). Remove from oven. Allow crackers to rest for about 30 seconds. Using a pizza cutter, slice the dough first lengthwise, then widthwise. I usually make 4 cuts lengthwise and 8 cuts widthwise which results in 45 individual crackers. Gently separate each cracker.

Return to oven for 7-10 minutes until crackers begin to turn golden. Remove from oven. Place crackers on a cooling rack for 10 minutes and they will crisp as they cool.

Note: If your crackers are not crispy after cooling, you can return them to the oven for a few more minutes.

Super crispy keto crackers that are perfect for dipping, smothering, or simply snacking.

With a flavor reminiscent of Cheez-Its, these low-carb parmesan and almond crackers are a hit—even with my kiddos. They have a fabulous, crispy texture and unlike many cheese-based crackers, they still pack that crunch days later! The best part? They’re totally keto-friendly. Woohoo!

Tips for making the best keto crackers:

- I’ve found that using freshly grated parmesan works much better than store-bought, pre-shredded varieties. Yes, it takes a bit of extra time, but trust me, it’s worth it!

- To crush the sliced almonds: Gently place them in the palm of your hand and squeeze slightly. The goal is to break the fine almond slices just a bit. Once crushed, the almonds should be similar in size to whole oats, certainly NOT a fine meal, so don’t get too crazy when you’re crushing.

- You can always switch these up by adding a fresh herb like dill or rosemary. A seasoning added to the top such as Everything But the Bagel seasoning would be so tasty, too!
