The Better Butter Cracker (Keto)

Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Cook Time:  28-36 Minutes

Servings:  20 Servings (5 crackers)

These taste almost like a ritz cracker! If you plan on eating them with cheese and dip, there are no additions needed to this recipe. It's buttery, salty, and crispy on its own. If you want to spice it up, try adding rosemary and salt, onion and garlic, or even cinnamon and brown swerve if you want something sweet. 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups almond flour
• 2 tbsp psyllium husks
• 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
• 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
• 1/4 tsp salt + more for sprinkling
• 8 tbsp salted butter, melted
• 2 egg whites
• *Optional herbs and spices of choice

Instructions:

1. Place psyllium husks and nutritional yeast in coffee grinder and blend until powdered
2. Place all dry ingredients in mixing bowl and combine
3. Using hand mixer, beat in the melted butter then the egg whites
4. Divide dough into two 
5. On a silmat or parchment paper, roll out dough to 4mm thin
6. Score the dough in the shape you want using a pizza cutter
7. If desired, poke holes in each cracker and sprinkle with more salt
8. Bake for 14-18 minutes depending on your oven. 16 minutes is perfect for me
9. Cracker should become a golden color
10. Let cool and break apart
11. Enjoy with your favorite cheese or dip.

Notes:
Be sure to roll the dough thin. I HIGHLY recommend 4mm. If it's too thick, you will not get crispy crackers. 

Also be sure to only use the egg whites. The yolk will make your crackers soft.

I actually made 105, 1.5"x 1.5," 4mm thick crackers with this recipe.
