Light and delicious
They taste splenderifous

They won’t make you wheezy

Or even uneasy

Recipe type: Paleo, Autoimmune Protocol, Vegan-Adaptable
Cuisine: Snack
Serves: ~60-100 crackers depending on size/shape
Ingredients
- 1.25 c Otto's cassava flour
- ¾ c tigernut flour
- 1-2 tsps garlic powder
- 4 tb nutritional yeast
- 1-1.5 tsp sea salt
- 2-3 tsp ground turmeric
- ¾ c cold leaf lard , ghee or coconut oil (V)
- ¾ - 1 c cold water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Mix dry (first 6) ingredients together.
- Mix in fat into mixture until well-incorporated. Add water bit by bit until dough comes together and you can form it into a flat disc (make sure it's not too wet or it'll be difficult to work with).
- Roll out dough between two (tapioca/arrowroot) floured pieces of parchment paper to about 1 mm thickness, then cut out cracker shapes as desired and place on baking sheet.
- Bake on parchment-lined baking tray for 15-20 minutes, until crackers are stiff (these shouldn't be too brown, they get overdone quickly - keep a close eye on them, cooking time varies by oven).
