Cheese Crackers, Low Carb

Submitted by marypatlaver

"These are a yummy low-carb alternative to cheez-its or goldfish crackers! The cayenne pepper is optional, but I like it for a little zip. If you have a cookie press, they are super fast & easy to form. I also love that they are uniform in shape. :) My serving size is eight crackers, & I got 64 crackers total from this recipe."

 

• Ready In: 20mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 64 Crackers
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 4 ounces cheddar cheese, grated
• 4 tablespoons cold butter, cut into pieces
• 1⁄4 cup coconut flour
• 1⁄8 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1⁄8 teaspoon onion powder
• 1⁄8 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1⁄8 teaspoon cayenne (optional)

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Add all ingredients into food processor & process until the butter is fully incorporated & the dough forms a ball.
3. Remove dough from food processor. Roll into a log shape. Insert into your cookie press with the die that makes two small cross-shaped cookies per pressing. Or, you know, whatever floats your boat. This is what I used to get smaller Cheez-it sized crackers. Press the dough directly onto a cool, ungreased baking sheet.
4. Bake for about 10 minutes until golden.
5. If you don't have a cookie press, you can roll the dough between two sheets of parchment & cut into small squares with a pizza wheel. This works fine, it's just more time consuming.
