Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup almond flour
- 3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp salt (plus more for sprinkling on top)
- 1 egg (or egg substitute)
- 1 Tbsp butter or coconut oil (melted)
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Combine flour, salt and yeast in a bowl
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the egg with the melted butter/oil and lemon juice
- Combine the wets with the dries and stir until dough forms
- Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to about 1/8 inch thickness
- With a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut dough into desired cracker size (I use a ruler with a pizza slicer to get them straight and even) and sprinkle the top with more sea salt
- Slide the bottom piece of parchment and crackers onto a cookie sheet
- Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes until golden
- The outer crackers will brown the fastest, remove those and continue to cook the remaining crackers
Notes
I used melted butter to make these have a bit more of a "creamy" taste, but expeller-pressed coconut oil will work for dairy-free option.
