If you’ve ever wondered how to make crackers at home this easy cracker recipe is your answer. With just 5 healthy ingredients –almond flour, sesame seeds, egg, olive oil, and salt you can whip up these gluten-free Sesame Crackers in no time at all! This low-carb snack recipe is crunchy and totally addictive! You won’t want to go back to expensive gluten-free store bought crackers once you make these paleo crackers because they’re so incredibly good.
We serve these crackers with my homemade Guacamole recipe or Olive Tapenade, either way, they’re perfect for parties or snacking! Store these crackers on the counter. Or, after cooling overnight, you can place them in a mason jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

What can I substitute the almond flour with as I am not to eat almonds
Elana says
Ruth, I haven’t tried that so not sure. Here’s a link to my Nut-Free Recipes page for you:

Ruth says
I am not nut free only almond free I can use cashews which I usually use instead of almonds but wasn’t sure if it would work in your recipe but I will try and see what happens
Elana says
Ruth, thanks for your reply! My recipes work every time because I test them dozens of times. When you change the ingredient, you change the recipe, if I don’t test it, I have no way of knowing if it will turn out. So sorry I cannot test everything for everyone!!! Please stop back by and let me know if it works :-)

Roberta says
These are SERIOUSLY taste-challenged! Jeez, don’t you people eat things with FLAVOR?
Elana says
Roberta, thanks so much for your comment! I’m happy to help you troubleshoot this recipe with you so that it comes out perfectly.

Elana,
I have to say these crackers have converted many of my friends and family to the keto diet. Once they realized they could have amazing tasting crackers they wanted to know more. I make a batch every week for our house. We use them for chicken salad, cheese, egg salad and dips. I followed someone else’s suggestion and replaced a 1/4 cup of almond flour for flaxseed meal. I toast my sesame seeds and use sesame oil. I divide the dough into 4 balls and roll out very thin. I sprinkle salt and garlic pepper seasoning on the top before baking. I generally bake 8-10 mins or until a golden brown. THANK YOU so much for creating this recipe!!!!
Elana says
Vicki, I’m so happy to hear you and your friends are enjoying these crackers and that they are amazing!
Lori says
I am thrilled to have found your site. I would like to make Almond Flour crackers to munch on during Passover but I’m a little confused by the recipe. After I roll out the dough and slice the crackers how do I get the crackers onto baking pan? Do I just put the parchment paper on the pan with the cracker dough together and sliced? Help please!!!
Elana says
Lori, thanks for your comment! Yes, exactly :-)

I just made these crackers. Very easy to make and incredibly delicious. Thank you Elana for your wonderful recipes.
Elana says
Mim, you’re welcome. So glad to hear these were incredibly delicious!
danielle says
Just letting you know…this is a ridiculous amount of salt.
Elana says
Thanks for your comment Danielle, if you make the crackers, feel free to use less salt. This is my go-to cracker recipe, and given that this makes several dozen crackers this amount of salt works super well :-)
Maria says
it makes a lot of cracker and I like the salt in them.
Elana says
Thanks Maria!
Naomi Fuller says
Could you please tell me why you say not Meal when the recipe calls for Almond Flour. I find it really hard to buy Almond Flour and when I do it is twice the price of the Almond meal.
Elana says
Hi Naomi, here’s a link to my Almond Flour Page for more info on that:

Hi Elana:)
We have egg, gluten, wheat and milk issues. I have used flax meal to replace eggs in the past. I also have guar gum and xanthem (sp?) gum. What do you recommend for your crackers?
Thanks!
Jeanne Hanes
PS…I just found your website and am anxious to get deeper into it!!
