🥜Ingredients (makes about 30 crackers)
1 cup whole almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup sesame seeds (mix of black & white for drama)
½ tsp sea salt
½ tsp baking powder
3 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
4–6 tbsp ice water
Flaky sea salt for sprinkling
🔥Step-by-Step: Crackers in a Few Easy Moves
1. Turn Almonds into Magic Dust
Lock the cheese shredder hand crank with the crushing blade. Feed in almonds and crank until you get a fine, flour-like texture. Done in seconds, perfectly even.
2. Mix the Dough
In a large bowl, combine almond powder, flour, sesame seeds, salt, and baking powder. Drizzle in oil and 4 tbsp ice water. Mix until it forms a dough—add more water if needed. Knead lightly, then wrap and chill while the oven heats.
3. Roll Ultra-Thin
Divide dough in half. Roll each piece between two sheets of parchment until paper-thin (almost see-through!). The thinner, the crispier.
4. Cut & Sprinkle
Peel off top parchment. Cut into squares, rectangles, or whatever shape you like. Brush lightly with water and sprinkle flaky salt + extra sesame seeds.
5. Bake Until Golden
Slide parchment onto baking sheets. Bake at 350°F (175°C) until edges are golden and centers feel crisp—watch closely near the end! Cool completely on the tray.
🌟Tips & Twists
Spicy Kick – Add a pinch of cayenne or chili flakes to the dough.
Herb Vibes – Mix in rosemary or za’atar with the sesame seeds.
Cheese Board Glow-Up – Cut into long triangles and serve with soft cheese.
Storage – Keep in an airtight tin for up to 2 weeks (if they last that long).
🎉Conclusion
One batch of these Sesame Almond Crackers and you’ll never look at a store-bought box the same way. Thank the cheese slicer for making it this easy (and this delicious).
