Substituting almond flour for nut-free crackers
This recipe uses almond flour, and I do not recommend swapping it with coconut flour unless you are completely familiar with conversions.
Different flours come with extremely different consistencies and coconut flour and almond flour are VERY different.
Coconut flour is incredibly absorbent, and much more so than almond flour. If you were to equally swap out almond flour for coconut flour, your crackers would simply not turn out. Because of its high absorbency, 1/4 cup of coconut flour is equal to an entire cup of almond flour.
Looking for a nut-free version for this recipe? I have had A LOT of success with subbing in ground sunflower seed meal at a 1:1 ratio for almond flour. If you try it, let me know in the comments below how it goes! Otherwise, check out this keto cracker recipe made entirely with nuts.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. To a mixing bowl, add all dry ingredients excluding coarse salt and ground pepper.
Whisk until well-combined.
Add in beaten egg.
Then, using hands, knead together until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Spray two pieces of parchment paper with cooking spray. Lay one piece down, spray side up, placing dough in the center.
Lay the other piece down, spray side down so it touches the dough, and lightly press down. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough until it is an even layer. The dough should be quite thin.
Remove and discard the top piece of parchment paper. Carefully slide a baking tray beneath the parchment paper with the dough on top. Using a knife, gently cut crackers into the desired size. Sprinkle coarse salt and black pepper on the dough before baking crackers for 15 to 18 minutes.
Remove crackers from oven and allow to cool completely before breaking them apart. Enjoy with your favorite dip, like this Jalapeño Spinach Artichoke Dip or BLT Dip!

Lydia says
Great recipe! Nice crunch – a must for me – much better than other keto cracker recipes I’ve tried. I’ve made these a few times and most recently substituted dried rosemary for the herbs and also added chia, flax and poppy seeds. I also toasted the sesame seeds to get some extra crunch and flavour. In addition, I added a little bit of hemp seeds for a higher protein content.Pure yum!

Heidi says
These are fab! I’ve made 3 batches already! My third batch I added some chia seeds to. I’m going to play arounf with other seeds and flavours.
Also, a huge savings. Low carb store bought crackers are SO expensive.

These are great.
Crackers are one of the things I missed.
I had some French herb sea salt.
Even better 😊
