Combine. Melt unsalted butter (2 tablespoons) in a large heat-safe bowl. Stir in almond flour (1 1/2 cup), salt (1/2 teaspoon), black pepper (1/4 teaspoon), xanthan gum (1/2 teaspoon) and water (1/4 cup), and knead until fully combined.
Shape. Form the dough into 4 small balls, and press each into a disk. Roll each disk between 2 pieces of parchment pepper until 1/8" thick, or thinner. Remove the top sheet of parchment and sprinkle seasoning on top. Return parchment paper to the top, and roll 1 more time to press the seasoning into the dough. Cut the dough into squares using a pizza cutter (or ravioli cutter).
Microwave on high for 60 seconds. Flip the crackers and break them apart. Return crackers to the microwave, and microwave on high for 20-second intervals, until you reach your desired crispiness.

Prep. Preheat oven to 350 F.
Combine. Melt butter in a heat-safe bowl. Stir in the almond flour, salt, pepper, xanthan gum, and water, and knead until fully combined.
Shape. Form the dough into 2 small balls, and press each into a disk. Roll each disk between 2 pieces of parchment pepper until 1/8" thick, or thinner. (the thinner the dough, the crispier the cracker). Remove the top sheet of parchment and sprinkle seasoning on top. Return parchment paper to the top, and roll 1 more time to press the seasoning into the dough. Cut the dough into squares using a pizza cutter (or ravioli cutter).
Bake. Place parchment paper and cut crackers on a baking sheet and bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes. Break apart the crackers and flip them. Return to the oven for another 8 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown.

Almond Flour. Using fine-grained almond flour will yield the most "flour-like" results. My favorite brands are Bob's Red Mill, Trader Joe's, or Costco brands.
Xanthan Gum is necessary for binding the ingredients of this recipe together, you CAN'T SKIP OR SUB!
Cooking method note: I tested this recipe several ways, trying to achieve the crispiest cracker! I was able to achieve the crispiest cracker in the microwave, followed by the more labor intensive oven method. Regardless of the method you choose, the flavor is equally delicious. And, this will take a bit of trial and error, as cook times will vary with how thin your crackers are, etc.
The servings will vary depending on the size you cut your crackers, and how thin you roll your dough. Using this recipe I was able to make 50 crackers that were roughly 1.5” square. This would make a serving size = 5 crackers.
