Copycat Keto Cheez-It Crackers Recipe

These crispy homemade Cheez Its keto crackers are the perfect low carb snack for the keto diet. They’re cheesy, salty, and so easy to make with simple ingredients like cheddar and almond flour. Perfect for lunchboxes, lazy weekends, or a crunchy side for your keto quiche.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

  • ¾ cup almond flour

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • Optional: pinch of smoked paprika or chili powder

  • 1 egg white (optional for binding if dough is crumbly)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.

  2. Melt cheddar cheese in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second bursts, stirring in between.

  3. Mix in almond flour, butter, garlic powder, salt, and any optional spices. Combine until it forms a soft dough.

  4. Place dough between two parchment sheets. Roll out to ⅛ inch thickness.

  5. Remove top parchment and cut into small squares.

  6. Poke a small hole in each square with a skewer for that classic Cheez-It look.

  7. Bake on a sheet lined with parchment for 12–15 minutes, or until edges are golden.

  8. Let them cool completely before eating to get full crunch.

Notes

  • If dough is too dry, add a bit of egg white. If too sticky, chill for 10 minutes.

  • Use sharp cheddar for best flavor.

  • Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

  • These go great with dips, soups, or even as a crust topping for keto casseroles.
