How to make the healthy crackers?

These crackers are rich, flavorful, and crunchy. They consist of almond meal, mozzarella cheese, butter, egg white, and seasoning. These ingredients are pulsed in a food processor until a wet dough forms. The dough is then chilled, rolled, sliced, and baked into small rectangles. After they cool, they are ready to be decorated.

How to replace some food allergens in this recipe?

Allergens should be considered at all times, especially when it comes to children. It’s best to ask the children’s parents about any allergies you should consider when preparing Keto children’s tea party recipes. Nuts are a common allergy, and this recipe contains almonds. You can swap the almond meal for sunflower seed flour for a nut-free version. As for the egg white, you can replace it with 1 tbsp of flax/chia egg. When it comes to dairy, there is no substitute for cheese in this recipe.

How to create an activity out of this recipe?

While you can prepare these cute bug crackers ahead of time, this would also be fun for a children’s Keto tea party…to keep the kids busy assembling their little bugs. All you have to do is bake the crackers, cut the veggies, prepare cream cheese in piping bags, and leave the assembling to their creativity.

Just Almond Meal

1 cup
Salt

0.25 tsp
Onion powder

0.5 tsp
Egg whites

1 large
Butter

1 tbsp
Mozzarella cheese, whole milk

1 cup, grated
Cream cheese

0.33 cup
Tomato

10 cherry
Cucumber

0.5 medium
Chives

5 g

Step 1

To a food processor, add the almond flour, salt, onion powder, egg white, and butter. Grate the mozzarella cheese and add it in. Pulse until a wet dough forms.
Step 2

Transfer the dough to a piece of cling film. Wrap it and place it in the fridge. Let it chill for 1 hour.
Step 3

Preheat your oven to 200C/400F. Take the dough out of the fridge and place it on a piece of parchment paper. Roll out to ¼ inch thick (1/2 cm).
Step 4

Cut into rectangles measuring 2 by ¾ inches ( 4cm x1.5 cm). If the dough starts sticking, transfer it to the freezer and let it chill. Space out the dough pieces from each other.
Step 5

Slide the parchment paper onto a baking sheet and transfer it to the oven. Bake for 16-20 minutes until golden and crispy. Take the sheet out of the oven and let the crackers cool.
Step 6

Place the cream cheese into a piping bag and cut off the tip. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half cross-wise and slice the cucumber into thin 1/2 circles. Cut the chives into long thin strips.
Step 7

Layout the crackers onto a flat board. Pipe a generous strip of cream cheese along with the crackers. Secure half a cherry tomato at the tip, two cucumber slices at the sides, and the chives behind the tomatoes.
Step 8

The aim is for the crackers to look like cute bugs. You can decorate them differently as well. Keep in the fridge loosely covered until serving.
