Keto Herbs crackers

Keto Herbs crackers are spicy and have a fresh taste having a lower carb count. We make these crackers with a few ingredients, such as flaxseed meal, baking powder, oregano, almond flour, thyme, egg, chia seeds, rosemary, salt, olive oil, and water. You don’t need to buy these components from retailers because you already have them at home. Instead, getting them from shops is simple to do. These crackers will keep in the freezer for a month. In 6-8 crackers, a single serving has 120 kcal of caloric content and two g of net carbs. These snacks can be prepared using simple baking techniques in thirty minutes. Throughout the week, Keto Herbs crackers are perfect for appetizers, parties, meals, get-togethers, and snacks.  You can serve these crackers with smoked turkey, avocado slices, goat cheese, or broccoli cheddar soup.

• Chia seeds, one tbsp
• One big egg
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• Two to three tbsp water
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Two tbsp olive oil

INGREDIENT NOTES:

FLAXSEED MEAL:

• It helps in combining the dough ingredients and provides fiber content. We can substitute it with the ground sunflower seeds, which will also give a good result.

HERBS:

• They increase the crackers’ flavor and add a fragrant taste. For a powerful, fresh taste, use the parsley or basil herbs from the microgreens instead.

EGGS:

• It gives the crackers structure and holds them together. Since flax eggs give a dense rather than fudgy texture, they are not advised.

ALMOND FLOUR:

• This has a gentle nutty flavor and is low in carbs. It can be substituted with finely ground hazelnut or macadamia flour, which is also perfect for a keto diet.

OLIVE OIL:

• Mix all the spices with a tiny bit of olive oil to make these crackers. It boosts the amount of healthy fat in the food, which is beneficial for this diet. Instead, use avocado oil or melted butter.

CHIA SEEDS:

• They include fiber and have fewer carbs, which is best for remaining on a low-carb diet. An alternative is ground flaxseed, although it will have a softer texture.

SALT:

• We use a pinch of salt to balance the savory taste. It also improves the flavor and provides a taste of savoriness.
