Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.25 cup Butter
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate all the dry ingredients together.

Step 3

In a separate small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, allow it to cool slightly.

Step 4

Beat the eggs in a separate bowl and then slowly pour in the cooled melted butter while whisking continuously to ensure they blend well without cooking the eggs.

Step 5

Add the egg and butter mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. It should be slightly sticky but should hold together well.

Step 6

Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly using your hands or a silicone spatula to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until just set but not browned.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the baked mixture into small squares, roughly 1 inch each in size.

Step 9

Spread the cut pieces slightly apart to allow them to cook evenly into croutons.

Step 10

Return to the oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the croutons cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to an airtight container for storage.

Step 12

Enjoy your low-carb garlic croutons over salads, soups, or as a crunchy snack!
