Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup certified gluten-free oat flour
- ¼ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3 tbsp melted coconut oil (or unsalted butter)
- 3 tbsp honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2–3 tbsp water
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oat flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Ensure everything is evenly combined.
Step 3: Add the Wet Ingredients
Add the melted coconut oil, honey, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Stir until the dough starts to form. Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough becomes pliable but not sticky.
Step 4: Roll Out the Dough
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about ⅛ inch thickness. Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into squares or rectangles. For a classic look, use a fork to poke holes in each cracker.
Step 5: Bake
Transfer the crackers to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. Keep a close eye on them, as they can burn quickly.
Step 6: Cool and Store
Let the crackers cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to an airtight container. They’ll crisp up further as they cool.
Notes
- Substitutions: You can substitute almond flour with cashew flour and coconut sugar with regular sugar or a sugar-free alternative.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Vegan Option: Replace honey with maple syrup for a completely vegan recipe
