Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams Almond flour
- 1 large Egg
- 60 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried rosemary. Mix well to ensure even distribution of all dry ingredients.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave for about 20 seconds or until fully melted.
Beat the egg in a separate small bowl, then add the beaten egg and melted butter to the dry ingredient mixture.
Stir the dough together using a silicone spatula or wooden spoon until a cohesive dough forms. It should be soft yet firm enough to roll.
Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper and place another piece of parchment paper on top. Roll the dough out with a rolling pin to about 3mm (1/8 inch) thickness. Try to keep the dough as evenly spread as possible.
Carefully remove the top parchment paper and use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into approximately 5cm (2 inch) squares.
Sprinkle the sesame seeds evenly over the top of each square and gently press them into the dough with your fingers or the back of a spoon.
Transfer the parchment paper with the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the almond thins turn a light golden brown color.
Remove from the oven and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. They will crisp up as they cool down.
Store the almond thins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
