Recipe Description
DESCRIPTION: Crackers on a ketogenic diet? Not only is it possible with this keto garlic chia crackers recipe, it’s easy. And they’re downright delicious.
If you’re rolling your shopping cart through the supermarket, crackers live in an aisle you shouldn’t venture down. It’s the land of highly processed carbohydrates that you need to avoid on a keto diet.
You probably know them well. It’s the cookies, the crackers, and the animal crackers, which are seemingly more cookie-like than anything. Things you might have thought are off the list forever. But you can make them yourself.
This keto garlic chia crackers recipe won’t compromise your diet, because I’ve swapped out a ton of ingredients from your typical store bought box of crackers.
If you check the ingredient label, you’d probably find sugar, high fructose corn syrup, white or all-purpose flour, soybean oil, and a bunch of things you can’t pronounce, let alone find outside of a lab.
Thankfully, making tasty ketogenic snack worthy crackers requires none of those ingredients. Instead, ground chia seeds form the base, and garlic livens things up.
Recipe Directions
- Preheat oven to 300F (150 C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on a flat surface. Place the dough on top of the paper and place another piece of parchment paper on top of the dough.
- Use a rolling pin to roll the dough to desired thickness (approx. 0.2 cm thick).
- Carefully pull the top piece of parchment paper away and use a sharp knife to score the dough into small cracker squares.
- Place the parchment paper with the scored dough on a baking tray and bake for 30 minutes.
- Break the crackers apart after 15 minutes and flip the crackers over.
- Enjoy with the garlic dip.
