Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Melt the Cheeses
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat mozzarella and cream cheese in 30-second intervals until fully melted and smooth. Stir well to combine.
Step 3: Make the Dough
Add almond flour, egg, seasonings, salt, and pepper to the melted cheese. Mix until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
Step 4: Roll It Thin
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out very thin — thinner dough equals crispier crackers.
Step 5: Cut and Season
Remove the top parchment and cut the dough into squares or triangles. Sprinkle with seeds or seasoning if desired.
Step 6: Bake Until Golden
Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crisp. Rotate the pan halfway for even baking.
Step 7: Cool Completely
Let the crackers cool fully on the baking sheet. They crisp up more as they cool, delivering that perfect crunch.
Pro Tips & Variations (100 Words)
For ultra-crispy crackers, roll the dough as thin as possible and bake a few extra minutes while watching closely. Want flavor variety? Add smoked paprika, chili powder, or everything bagel seasoning. Swap mozzarella for pepper jack to add heat. These Crispy Keto Crackers also work well as a flatbread base — just bake slightly thicker and slice after. If some crackers bake faster than others, remove them early and return the rest to the oven. Store properly to maintain crunch.
