Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water. Stir them together and set aside for about 5 minutes to allow the mixture to thicken. This will act as a binder for the almond thins.
In a larger mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly combined.
Add the flaxseed mixture and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix everything together until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but easy to handle.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll it out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Try to keep it as even as possible to ensure consistent baking.
Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into squares or desired shapes. Transfer them gently to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the almond thins to cool completely on a wire rack. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Once cooled, store the almond thins in an airtight container to maintain their freshness and crispiness.
