Rosemary Fig Crackers

July 6, 2009102 Comments Affiliate Links

With only 6 ingredients, Rosemary Fig Crackers are super easy to make. All you need is almond flour, figs, rosemary, egg, olive oil, and salt. We serve this homemade sweet and savory cracker recipe plain or topped with goat cheese. My husband loves having these as a healthy paleo snack.

This easy cracker recipe is also great to serve at parties. We often host cocktail parties for non-profits as well as political fundraisers to discuss clean and fair food for all.

I very much enjoy the challenge of creating an entirely gluten-free menu for these types of gatherings. Usually only a handful of people who attend are gluten-free, but they are so grateful that they can eat everything we provide! Such guests are further stunned when they find out that I’m serving paleo bread and crackers as vehicles for our healthy hors d’oeuvres. No one else who attends can tell the difference. Mostly folks are just blown away that everything is homemade for a party of 50-100 people in my home. Check out this photo on Instagram for a quick look at one of our events.

gluten free fig rosemary cracker

The idea for this Rosemary Fig Crackers recipe came from an article in our local paper, The Daily Camera. The crackers they featured were made with wheat flour. Since they looked so good, I decided to create my own paleo cracker recipe using that flavor profile. I think these have turned out very well!

Here are some of the other healthy paleo appetizer recipes I serve at our cocktail parties and fundraisers!

    Hi….recently turned to a Paleo diet.
    Thanks for all your wonderful recipes.
    One problem is I’m finding it hard to
    get an Almond flour here in Canada.
    Only Almond meal…and Honeywell the one you reccommend doesn’t ship up here. Do you have any suggestions?I’ve tried almond meal in some recipes and it doesn’t seem to turn out well Thx :)

    Yesterday, I read about how healthy it would be to eat figs marinated in EVOO for 40 days.
    Now, I’m awaiting delivery of new dried figs so I can make this recipes, which looks delish.
    Many thanks for you & the simplicity of all your recipes!

    Tried these yesterday. Love the flavor. Could not get them to be a cracker. I was worried they would burn before crisping up. We live in a humid area so wondered if a lower temp like for your wheat thin recipe would work or does the egg dictate the higher temp?

      April 25, 2016 at 7:22 pm

      Tammy, if you need to get the crackers to crisp up, throw them back in the oven on a very low temperature and check every 5-10 minutes until crispy. This will dry them out :-)

    I’ve been making your sesame seed crackers for some time now and actually added 1 cup walnuts which added an extra nutty crunch (If one would prefer).

    I was ready to venture out on my cracker experiments and tried this one. Yours called for 3-4 figs and I thought more couldn’t hurt, but found out less is more at least in this case. The crackers were already soft by the next day ( I think just from the extra moisture the figs added) so I’m planning on sticking to your recommended fig ratio when I try them tomorrow again.

    Keep them coming, Thank!!

    You can tell that Elana’s recipes are tested and retested, as these came out perfectly on my first try. My only change was to substitute chopped raisins, as I didn’t have figs on hand and wanted to try these right away. My only advise is to watch them closely in the oven, as they can go from golden brown to dark brown very quickly. They have a lovely smooth texture, and mine stayed relatively crisp, even after storing in a container over night. I just had them for lunch, topped with tuna salad and am a VERY happy camper! I never knew low carb could be so delicious.

      Since trying this recipe as crackers, I’ve since adjusted seasonings to adapt it for pizza crust and “tortillas” for tostadas. Both were great! What a great base recipe with many uses.

    Elana – like you I have a wonderful collection of greens that I use daily, but what I crave is the kind of salad that is green, has a crunchy texture throughout (could be nuts I suppose but I try to guard against too many nuts) and has a delicious dressing – al paleo of course!
    Love all your biscuit recipes by the way. Have taken so many to parties and nobody notices that they are…well, different! They just get eaten!

    I did not have any rosemary by itself so I used herbs de providence with the figs. Wow these crackers are hard to stop eating. I thought it would take some time to make them, but they were so easy and yummy that I made two batches. Of course that was partially due to me eating many “tester” crackers as they were coming out of the oven.

    I added less than 1/4 cup of flax seeds and love the extra color and crunch.

    Mari, xanthan gum is a source of MSG which you might be sensitive too (which is normal since MSG is a neurotoxin).
    I mostly heard of xanthan gum triggering migraines but everybody is different and this is a way for your body to tell you that this ingredient/food is not right for you.
    I have never used xanthan gum in my GF cooking so I’m a living proof that you can do without it ;).

    Hi Elana,

    I don’t have a medical reason to eat g-free, but I’ve heard that some people just feel better and have an easier time managing their weight on a gluten-free diet. I, for one, have fewer sugar and starch cravings when I’m eating g-free and low-carbohydrate. I had my first success this week! I finally made your pumpkin pie muffins and they were so delicious and moist that I ate all of them within 3 days! Now that I got my coconut flour in the mail I am anxious to try the blueberry and banana nut muffins. Thank you for taking the time to perfect your recipes!

    One question – I was wondering if you’ve done much cooking with other g-free grains like brown rice flour, amaranth, or teff. I haven’t because I’m still learning how to do the basics, but if you have I would love to see a recipe!

    Thanks and keep ’em coming!

    I am intrigued by your raw recipes and links. Previous reading on this topic all seemed ‘out there,’ a bit dense and a little too earthy to be tasty. However, the recipes here are quite delicious looking, and would pass the test with anyone, on a specific eating plan or not. I like the idea of being challenged to do different things with ingredients that are common, such as the cashew ice cream. Additionally, any new recipes for coconut oil would be fun.

    I never thought of making my own crackers. These look amazing!

    I would love to have a gluten-free recipe for Yorkshire Pudding, so that I don’t feel like I’m missing out during the cold winter months – no rush as it is still summer now ;)

    Thanks again for your creativity and dedication. All of your baked goods are incredible.

    What do I want? Well, I want a gluten free, milk free, corn free Snickers bar, Peanut butter cups, and Rocky Road candy. I want to make Easter candy, Christmas candy and for special events, elegant candy. Not too sweet with Sugar in the Raw or honey (no agave please). Could you try it with Abersold Foods brand, Dari-Free? It is a potato based milk alternative. Use Rice Syrup instead of corn? Or some other syrup I have yet to discover? You are the genius…I am expecting miracles.

    Great Elana, these look fabulous! I love to put spreads or home made jams etc on crackers, but these are way too beautiful to cover up…
    I will make these tonight!
    Thank you for another lovely idea and have a great day!

    I’m keen on pretty much everything, but am especially interested right now in dehydrator (raw) recipes. Sergei Boutenko has a great butternut squash cookie recipe, for example…

    These look GREAT! I would love to see grain-free tortillas and biscuits. Preferably higher in protein, but if not that’s ok too!

    Elana,

    These look great! I’d love to see maybe a sample of what you eat for each meal for a few days. What recipes and which foods do you rely on frequently? That would help me tremendously with food choices and learning to structure my week to make time for food prep.

    Wow, Elana, I’d vowed never to make crackers, but that recipe might change my mind. They look absolutely incredible! :-)

    I have an addict’s cache of cookbooks, so I don’t personally need recipes for salads, veggies, etc. What I really appreciate most from your site are the gluten-free recipes for breads, crackers, desserts, etc., which are hard to find anywhere else.

    These sound wonderful! Am anxious to try them.

    Elana, this blog is my new favourite! Excellent work, thank you.

    Having blown through the archives over the past few days (it was all compelling reading) it seems that what one might like to eat in a day is well represented! I guess the only thing I can think of is maybe a few suggestions for little lunchboxes?

    Excuse me if this has already been covered but with Papadini Lentil Pasta gone, is there any other pasta you use besides Mung Bean?

    Do these actually get nice & crunchy? I’ve tried a few recipes, even going as far as using my pasta roller to go thinner than 1/8 inch and it seems they still often end a little chewy in the middle. I really crave a crunchy, crispy, non-rice based cracker.

    I like the coconut flour recipes, so I’d be happy to see more of them for desserts & other day to day baked goods.

      I’ve been making crackers without egg. They have turned out great.
      1 c almond flour
      1/2 to 1 tsp salt
      tsp spice(rosemary, garlic, etc optional)
      3-4 Tbsp lemon, lime, orange juice or just water with 1/2t vinegar.
      enough so the flour sticks together.

      Roll out between parchment paper
      Score in squares
      bake at 350 10 minutes
      or 300 @15 min.

        Hi, great suggestion — I’m vegan and was going to try replacing the egg with a flax egg –I see someone else used a chia egg! Can’t wait to try these!!

      I’ve sometimes found the same thing but I found that if I cut them into squares first and separate them all and then bake, they come out crispier. A little bit more work but worth it if you want the crispier texture.

    Elana, I have so many squash, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Also getting hit with tons of okra, and the red chilies are going strong. Would love a straight from the southern garden type recipe.
