These are crunchy substantial crackers that can stand up to what ever you pile on them.

These crackers are to die for! They’re crunchy, salty and extremely flavorful. I had never thought of making my own crackers until I saw a recipe in “Paleo Indulgences” by Tammy Credicott. Her recipe calls for almond flour, which I changed out for tapioca starch. I also added some more seasonings. The trick to make these delicious treats is to roll them very thin. I served these with some chicken liver pate to Diane Sanfilippo and Liz Wolf when they recently spent the night on the farm with our family while they were in town for a Balanced Bites workshop. Feel free to play around with the herbs to come up with your own creation. Fresh basil, mint, tarragon, or thyme would also work well here. They’re sure to be a hit.
