Servings: 8
Calories: 200kcal
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese finely grated
- 4 Tbsp. Butter (1/2 Stick) cut into small pieces
- 1 cup Almond Flour
- 1/2 tsp. Salt
- 1/2 tsp. Seasoning Salt
- Pinch Cayenne Pepper
- 4 Tbsp. Ice Water
Instructions
- Place the cheese, butter, almond flour, salt, and pepper in a food processor and pulse until the mixture has the texture of sand. (If you have a small food processor, do this in batches.)
- Add the ice water and pulse until the dough comes together.
- Form into a dough ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Roll out the chilled dough to 1/4-inch thickness between two pieces of parchment paper. Cut dough into 1-inch squares with a pizza cutter. Use a wooden skewer or tooth pick to poke a small hole in the center of each square.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Transfer the squares to the prepared baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 18 to 25 minutes.
- Allow crackers to cool completely before removing crackers from baking sheet.
Notes
If crackers "run together" while baking, use pizza cutter to re-cut crackers upon taking them out of the oven.
