Oh, how often I have thought of these crackers! #Facebook memories wins again. I was so overjoyed to see this post from three years ago this morning that I must share it with you. Plus, then I will be able to find the recipe again. Yay!
The aforementioned PALEO CRACKER recipe:
Garlic Crackers (Basics, Paleo, Keto, Serves 4-6)
- 1 cup almond meal
- 1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 large egg white
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. paprika
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
- Place the mixture on a sheet of baking paper with an additional sheet of baking paper over the top.
- Using a rolling-pin or other cylindrical object, roll mixture out to about 1/8 of an inch thick.
- With the baking paper still on top, cut pastry into individual, desired shaped pieces with a knife or a pizza cutter.
- Carefully remove baking paper from the top of pastry.
- Place individual pastries about ½ inch apart on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake pastry in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until crackers are golden browned and crisp.
- Allowing cooling for 15 minutes. Serve.
I did not have a rolling-pin handy, so smoothed it down between wax paper until thin enough.
My apologies to the creator of said recipe. I did not note my source in the g-doc. But then again, I would just mock you anyway because you pretentiously refer to this as pastry on multiple occasions. In that phase, I would have called it dough or squares or something that does not make me sound too good for my own food.
I do not have a regular cracker recipe for you because honestly if I am eating wheat I just use Ritz or one of those fancy water crackers.
I served these crackers with chicken liver pâté on the side (source unknown but possibly nom nom paleo).
Chicken Liver Pâté (Hors d’oeuvres, Paleo, Keto, Serves 6-16)
- 8 oz chicken livers
- 200 g (14 tbsp or almost 2 sticks!) butter, grass-fed
- 4 clove garlic
- 4 tbsp fresh tarragon, removed from stems or 1-1/3 tbsp dried
- 2 shallot, peeled and finely chopped
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the shallot and garlic, then the chicken livers.
- Flip the livers over to color the other side.
- Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Transfer all to a blender, add the tarragon and blend to a paste.
- Chill in the fridge to set.
I served these at my last reception at Sekhet-Maat Lodge, August 31st, 2013 e.v. I love and miss you all.
I cannot wait to make these again. I have no photo so have included on of the #babysatyr in his Pooh-jays, my favorite pajamas.
