Crackers are usually all refined carbs, but a dough of almond flour and seeds makes crisp, savoury crackers with a fraction of the carbs — perfect with cheese or dips. The air fryer crisps them in minutes. Here's how, with the numbers.
Key takeaways
Q: How do you make low-carb crackers in an air fryer?
A: Roll out an almond-flour-and-seed dough thin, cut into squares, and air fry at 160°C (320°F) for 10–14 minutes, until crisp.
Q: What keeps them low-carb?
A: Almond flour and seeds instead of wheat flour.
The method
Mix almond flour with mixed seeds, a little egg and seasoning into a dough, roll it thin between baking paper, and cut into squares. Air fry at a gentle heat so they crisp through without catching. Watch them near the end — thin crackers brown fast.
