2-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Crackers (Crunchy, Low-Carb & Protein-Packed)

These cottage cheese crackers are the ultimate healthy snack—crispy, savory, and incredibly easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of light, crunchy crackers that are naturally low in carbs and gluten-free. Perfect for snacking, dipping, or adding to your meal prep routine!

Ingredients (Makes ~20 crackers):

1 cup cottage cheese (240 ml | 220 g)
1 cup almond flour (240 ml | 96 g)
A pinch of salt
Optional: garlic powder, paprika, rosemary, or chili flakes

Instructions:

Step 1 – Preheat & Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.

Step 2 – Mix the Dough:
In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, almond flour, and salt. Add any optional herbs or spices for extra flavor. Mix well until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. If the dough feels too wet, add a small amount of almond flour.

Step 3 – Roll & Shape:
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. Using a rolling pin, roll it out as thinly as possible—this is key for achieving a crispy texture. Remove the top parchment layer and cut the dough into small squares, rectangles, or fun shapes using a knife or pizza cutter.

Step 4 – Bake:
Carefully transfer the cut dough onto your prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the crackers look crisp. Keep an eye on them, as thinner edges may brown faster.

Step 5 – Cool & Crisp:
Remove from the oven and let the crackers cool completely on the tray. They will continue to crisp up as they cool, giving you that perfect crunchy bite.

Serving Ideas:
Enjoy these crackers on their own or pair them with dips like hummus, guacamole, or a creamy spread. They also work great on snack boards or as a crunchy topping for soups and salads.

Tips & Variations:

Roll the dough extra thin for maximum crunch.
Sprinkle sesame seeds or grated cheese on top before baking for added flavor.
Add Parmesan to the dough for a cheesy twist.

Storage:
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage. Re-crisp in the oven if needed.
