keto crackers

My newest cracker favourite is definitely these sour cream and chive keto crackers!

I made them and was virtually eating them straight from the baking tray as others were in the oven.  So sooooo good!  Seriously, I dare you to tell me when you make them that these couldn’t be boxed up and be a best selling Arnotts Keto Cracker!

The Ingredients

  • 200 g almond meal for a nut free cracker substitute defatted sesame flour.
  • 30 g grated parmesan, I use Hunter Belle Smokey Barbecue Bacon cheese but any kind of hard cheese like parmesan will do.
  • 50 g sour cream
  • 1/2 tsp sumac, available in most supermarkets.
  • 1 tbsp chives fresh chopped
  • Sea salt flakes

How to Make Them

Instructions have been given for thickness in rolling the Sour Cream & Chive Keto Crackers.

These crackers come out delicious either wafer thin (think super crispy ) and a little thicker like a standard cracker.  

I am not talking crap when I say these are delicious and easily my favourite.

I am making more today and I thought a really nice alternative version might be with some tomato powder and basil for a real Italian pizza flavour.  I so have to give that a go too.

Ingredients 

  • 200 g (1.75 cups) almond meal
  • 30 g (1 oz) grated parmesan I use Hunter Belle Smokey Barbecue Bacon Cheese
  • 50 g (4 tbsp) sour cream
  • 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) sumac
  • 1 tbsp (1 tbsp) chives fresh chopped

Topping

  • sea salt flakes I use Maldon smoked sea salt
  • lemon pepper I use Goya brand lemon pepper it is amazing!

Instructions

CONVENTIONAL METHOD

  • Preheat oven to 180℃. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper
  • Combine all ingredients in bowl. Turn out onto silicone mat or large sheet of baking paper. Cover with another sheet of baking paper. Roll out to 1-2mm thickness. Cut to shape and carefully transfer to prepared baking trays
  • Turn oven down to 150℃. Season the crackers with salt flakes. Bake 7-10 minutes. Cooking times may vary due to thickness of cracker. Please keep a watch after the 6 minute mark and remove any crackers that are lightly golden and firm when tapped with your fingertip. Allow to cool on wire rack before serving

THERMOMIX METHOD

  • Preheat oven to 180℃. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper
  • Add almond meal, parmesan, sour cream and sumac to mixer; mix 15 sec/speed 5.
  • Add chives; mix 5 sec/reverse/speed 3.
  • Turn out onto silicone mat or large sheet of baking paper. Cover with another sheet of baking paper. Roll out to 1-2mm thickness. Cut to shape and carefully transfer to prepared baking trays
  • Turn oven down to 150℃. Season the crackers with salt flakes. Bake 7-10 minutes. Cooking times may vary due to thickness of cracker. Please keep a watch after the 6 minute mark and remove any crackers that are lightly golden and firm when tapped with your fingertip. Allow to cool on wire rack before serving

Notes

For a nut free version please replace almond meal with sunflower seed meal, or a mix of sunflower and pepita meal.
For dairy free replace the cheese with nut cheese, and sour cream for the dairy free variety.
These crackers will store in an airtight jar for 2-3 weeks, but probably won’t get to last that long as everyone will want to eat them

    These are so yummy and moreish! I love the addition of the smoked salt on top. I even added a small amount into the mixture. These are also simple and quick to make.

    1. Megan Mad Creations Hub

      I love that smoked salt myself.

    I loved these! So quick and simple to make. I forgot to put the lemon pepper seasoning on, but it didn’t matter.. the smoked salt was so flavoursome. Will be making these again!

    1. Megan Mad Creations Hub

      haha! I am sure they were still super tasty.

  3. Kim

    What is the sumac for? Do I have to use it to make this work? Thanks

    1. Megan Mad Creations Hub

      Hi Kim, it is lemony middle eastern spice. It is used for flavour the crackers will work without it.

    Absolutely delicious Megan.
    Actually, I don’t think I’ve tried any of your recipes that weren’t absolutely delicious but these are something special. Yum.. can’t wait for lunch tomorrow.

    1. Megan Mad Creations Hub

      Aaaaawww Renee, you just made my day. Always happy to help your star shine in the kitchen with recipes you and the fam will love (or you want to hide so no one else can have them lol). Thanks for leaving a review, but most of all I am just happy you loved the recipe.

    I just made these after reading all the good reviews. They are delicious! I didn’t have chives so put in some garlic powder, subbed lemon zest for sumac and sprinkled with lemon pepper. Thanks so much for the recipe!

    1. Megan Mad Creations Hub

      Yay! I am so happy you enjoyed them Deahne. Thanks so much for trying the recipe.

  7. Howdy would you mind letting me know which webhost you’re utilizing?
    I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
    Can you recommend a good web hosting provider at a fair
    price? Cheers, I appreciate it!

    1. Megan

      I am using VetraIP and pricing is actually really good.

  8. Penny P

    Delicious and so easy to make! Now to put them away so I don’t eat too many.

    1. Megan

      hahaha!

  9. Sarah

    Hey Megan, how big are the crackers? I’m thinking about making, and squares would be better for my use, but don’t want to make the squares too big or it would be harder to calculate fats, etc. Thanks

    1. Megan

      Hi Sarah, mine are roughly 3.5-4cm in diameter.

  10. Lynette

    Hi Megan what is sumac and where can I buy it please .

  11. 4 stars
    Hi, tried these today.. Had no Parmesan so subbed with grated mozzarella, no chives so added a bit of dill & onion spice mix. I just free formed on the tray and marked into pieces. Best not to do that, they cooked quite unevenly, taste great though. Really happy, will make these again.

    1. Megan

      Hi Sandra, a better cheese would be any firm cheese not soft like mozzarella. I am glad you like them though still. Try again with the finely grated parmesan. These are a winning recipe

  12. Jaki

    Whats an alternative to the Hunter Belle cheese that you use? Just ordinary parmesan?
    Thanks

    1. Megan

      Yes that is perfectly fine in this recipe

  15. Rebecca

    Wow, definitely best keto cracker I’ve tried. I wish I made a double batch!

    5 stars
    Hi want to try these! Where do you get sumac from or can i use lemon rind! Wish i could buy hunter belle products as well! Thanks

    1. Megan

      Hi Shane, you could just use a little lemon rind and just use the parmesan, but if you want on another occasion add a little blitz crispy bacon. Sooo good!
