Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 1 cup Ground flaxseed
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Grate the zucchini using a box grater. Transfer the grated zucchini to a clean kitchen towel, and squeeze out as much liquid as possible to prevent sogginess.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, ground flaxseed, almond flour, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Stir until a dough forms.

Step 4

Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Using your hands or a rolling pin, flatten the dough into a thin, even layer (about 1/8 inch thick).

Step 5

Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to score the flattened dough into cracker-sized rectangles. This will make it easier to break them apart after baking.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crisp. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 7

Allow the crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet. Once cooled, gently break apart the crackers along the scored lines.

Step 8

Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
