Macronutrient Breakdown
Macronutrients are substances our bodies use for energy and growth. They’re necessary to perform all bodily functions.
Macronutrients come in the form of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids (fats). Each of these items carries their own calorie count.
As a general rule of thumb, these crackers are higher in fat, and lower in carbs and protein. That’s because low carb flours are high in fat (they’re primarily ground nuts), and many of these recipes incorporate cheese in some form or fashion.
Check out each recipe for specific nutritional breakdowns.
Are These Recipes Low Carb?
Yes!! All these recipes are for delicious low carb crackers. And because they’re sugar-free, they make great low carb crackers for diabetics, too.
Deciphering grocery store labels can be challenging. There are so many different names for ingredients and preservatives, it can be difficult to keep up with them all.
Making your own low carb crackers really simplifies things and you don’t have to sacrifice flavor. If you want low carb cheese crackers – make them. If you want low carb garlic crackers – make them.
Just about any flavor you’re craving can be incorporated into your low carb crackers.
Recipe Variations And Notes
So, here’s the thing. Some low carb flours can be swapped out while others can’t.
Coconut flour is a dryer flour that typically requires more liquid, so it can’t be used in an even swap with other flours. Almond flour is gluten-free and usually makes a denser product.
Some low carb crackers don’t require any flour at all. Some are made from cheese and others from nuts and seeds.
That’s the beauty of making your own low carb crackers. Plus you can incorporate anything from low carb taco seasoning to fresh herbs for a lovely flavor profile that will leave you begging for more.
How To Eat + Serving Suggestions
The best way to eat low carb crackers is sparingly because they are just so darn good it can be difficult to stop! You can portion them up in little baggies that you can grab and go or save them for an afternoon snack.
Here are some of my favorite uses:
- Dunk them in your favorite low carb sauce or use them to scoop Greek yogurt dip
- Top them with meats and cheeses
- Spread some pesto on them
- Sprinkle some seasonings on them and go to town
- Use them to make little sandwich crackers with your favorite nut butter
- I like to have them with tuna and chicken salad
I also use them in my low carb cooking too. Anything that requires any type of crunchy topping is fair game. I even eat them with a nice crisp salad and sometimes I put them on my salad in lieu of croutons!
There is no end to the way you can enjoy low carb crackers…
