Casey says
Do you have a tip for storage in the fridge so they maintain their crispness? Thank you so much!
Elana says
Casey, oh goodness, I haven’t stored these as they get eaten right away in my house. I would recommend keeping them in a mason jar in the fridge for freshness and I believe they’ll stay crisp this way too. Just make sure you leave them out to cool and crisp up for 8 hours or so before you store them.
Chandra says
I LOVE these crackers and so does my family. I added a 1/2 tsp each of onion powder and garlic powder and it’s quite yummy.
As I was eating them one day I thought they tasted a bit like pastry, so I adapted the recipe. Removed salt and pepper, added 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp xylitol, and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. Rolled out the dough, cut out circles and placed carefully into muffin tin and baked to make tart shells for fruit tarts or mini pies. SO YUMMY!
Elana says
Hi Chandra, so glad to hear you love these crackers and thanks for sharing your creative uses for this recipe!
Debby says
Is it possible to cook these on a stove top. I have no oven at the moment.
Elana says
Hi Debby, thanks for your comment! I haven’t ever tried making crackers without using an oven so I’m not sure if that’s possible; I think it’s unlikely that you would find success with the stove top method.
Donna says
I was wondering what I did wrong? They were not crunchy like a cracker. Any advice would be appreciated!
Elana says
Hi Donna, I’m sorry to hear that the crackers did not turn out correctly for you! The consistency can be different depending on the brands used when baking. The best results can come from using the brands that are shown when clicking on the green text in the ingredient portion of the recipe. Hopefully this will do the trick so that you can enjoy crunchy crackers in the future!
Patricia says
Could I substitute Coconut flour in this recipe or do you have a recipe for crackers using Coconut flour?
Elana says
Hi Patricia, thanks for your comment! I don’t have any recipes for nut-free crackers on my website, I do have a recipe on page 42 of my latest book, Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry. I also have a great post that explains the differences between almond and coconut flour that might be of interest to you:

I hope this is helpful!

Thank you thank you thank you!!
Dear Elana,
Made these and made more.
Rolled them thin as possible, esp the most recent time.
so wonderful to have something crunchy and savory!!!
Yes, I have this recipe for a while, and yes, time thank you.
I would love it if you would ever play around with a less calorie dense medium. ?savory meringues? Even tho my weight is in fact fine, I love to indulge. Eats lots.
And some savory, not too calorie laden snack would be fantastic.
many thanks, in this time of ThanksGiving,
as I continue to prep, cooking my annual ThanksGiving for our neighborhood tomorrow. You are invited. Good hubbub,
warm best,
Ruth
Elana says
Hi Ruth, thanks for all of your sweet comments (so many wonderful ones from you since I started this website almost a decade ago!) and have a fantastic Thanksgiving! xoxox
Ed (Bath, England) says
I made these as soon as I found the recipe on this very useful site. Really nice, so many thanks, Elana.
I didn’t bother with the processor; just stir it all together with a knife, then a touch of kneading. Rolled out between two sheets of non-stick baking parchment (I love that stuff). Sprinkled more S&P on top and a last, light roll to press the bits in.
