I love these crackers and they became my go-to snack for cheese boards, dips, and simply munching on their own when I feel peckish. Best of all? They’re incredibly simple to make and store beautifully for weeks!

Why These Are the Best Keto Seed Crackers

Perfect Keto Macros: These crackers are naturally high in healthy fats and fiber while keeping carbs incredibly low – exactly what your keto diet needs.
Nutrient Powerhouses: Each cracker delivers a concentrated dose of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential minerals from the variety of seeds used.
.
Incredibly Versatile: From cheese platters to solo snacking, these crackers work perfectly as part of a sharing platter or a cheese board.
.
Long-Lasting Crunch: Unlike store-bought alternatives, these homemade crackers maintain their crispy texture when stored properly.

Pro Tips for Perfect Crackers

• The Psyllium Secret: The psyllium husk powder is essential – it acts as a binder and creates the perfect texture. Keep working the dough until it forms a ball and has a gel-like consistency
• .Thickness Matters: Rolling the dough as thin as possible is key to achieving that satisfying crunch.
• Temperature Control: The 300°F temperature is crucial since higher heat can burn the delicate seeds.
• Ingredient Flexibility: As long as the total amount of seeds is the same as in the recipe, you can use more of one sort and less of another

How to store the crackers

To maintain crispiness, store the crackerrs in an airtight container. Just make sure they are completely dried and cooled before storing. I recommend using Sistema airtight containers, I’ve been using them for years and they’ve lasted well and kept my baked goodies fresh (plus I use them to store ingredients as well).

You can also use them to store any of the seeds you have leftover.

What to serve with the crackers

These crackers are incredibly versatile and go well with so many dips, spreads, cheeses, ham etc. Why not try them with:

• Sliced cheese and butter for a classic combination
• Cream cheese (plain or flavored)
• Peanut or almond butter for extra healthy fats
• Hummus for a Mediterranean twist
• Sliced salami or ham with Brie cheese

Variations and Substitutions

The great thing about our keto seed crackers recipe lies in its incredible adaptability, making it perfect for customizing based on your dietary choices, what’s available in the kitchen, and personal taste. The main thing to remember is to maintain the overall ratio of wet to dry ingredients while ensuring you have enough binding agents to hold everything together. As long as you keep that in mind you can experiment with different combinations of seeds, nuts, and flours to create unique flavor profiles that suit your palate perfectly.

• Nut-Free Option: Substitute sesame seed flour for almond flour to make these completely nut-free.
• Spice It Up: Add garlic powder, onion powder, herbs and even chili for extra flavor.
• Seed Swaps: Don’t have all the seeds? Use what you have on hand – the key is maintaining the total seed volume.

Seed Alternatives:

• Hemp hearts or hemp seeds for a nutty, protein-rich option
• Poppy seeds for a subtle, slightly sweet flavor
• Nigella seeds (black cumin) for a more exotic, aromatic taste
• Caraway seeds for a European-inspired flavor profile

Flour Substitutions:

• Coconut flour (use only 1/3 cup as it’s more absorbent) for a lighter texture
• Sesame seed flour for a completely nut-free version
• Ground flaxseed meal to replace part of the almond flour for extra omega-3s
• Hazelnut flour for a richer, more decadent flavor

Options for binding agents:

• Xanthan gum (1 teaspoon) can replace psyllium husk powder
• Ground chia seeds can serve as both binder and seed component
• Egg whites (2 large) can replace some of the water for extra protein

Alternative fat sources:

• Avocado oil for a neutral taste and higher smoke point
• Ghee or grass-fed butter for a richer, more indulgent flavor
• MCT oil combined with coconut oil for enhanced ketone production
• Olive oil for Mediterranean-inspired crackers

Seasonings:

• Garlic powder and dried herbs (rosemary, thyme, oregano) for savory Italian-style crackers
• Smoked paprika and cumin for a Spanish-inspired version
• Everything bagel seasoning for a popular modern twist
• Nutritional yeast for a cheesy, umami-rich flavor without dairy

Changing the texture:

• Leave some seeds whole instead of grinding everything for extra crunch
• Add chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans) for varied texture
• Include dried herbs like rosemary or thyme for aromatic bits
• Sprinkle coarse sea salt on top before baking for finishing salt crystals

Servings 15 crackers

Calories 88 kcal

Ingredients

  

• 1/3 cup chia seeds
• 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
• 1/3 cup sesame seeds
• 1/3 cup sunflower seeds
• 1/3 cup flax seeds
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

 

Prep Your Equipment:

• Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). This lower temperature is crucial for heat-sensitive seeds.
• Line an 11×17 inch baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Prepare the Seed Mixture:

• Place all seeds, almond flour, salt, and psyllium powder in a food processor.
• Grind to a uniform small size – this ensures even texture throughout your crackers.

Create the Dough:

• Boil 1 cup of water and ensure coconut oil is in liquid form.
• Pour ground seed mixture into a large mixing bowl.
• Slowly pour boiling water into the seed mixture, stirring continuously until thoroughly mixed.
• Let the mixture rest for 10-15 minutes – this allows the psyllium to create a gel-like consistency

Score:

• Spread mixture onto prepared baking sheet and use a small roller to roll as thin as possible – the thinner the dough, the crispier the crackers.
• Score the dough with straight lines using a spatula edge to create cracker-sized rectangles.

Bake to Perfection:

• Bake for 1 hour, checking periodically as seeds are heat sensitive
• When edges start browning, turn off oven and let crackers cool slowly inside.
• Finish cooling on a wire rack to room temperature.
