Number Of Ingredients 9

1 & 1/4 cup almond flour
2 tbsp coconut flour (I used Bob's Red Mill)
2 tbsp arrowroot starch (I used Bob's Red Mill)
1 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt
5 tbsp butter (well chilled and cut into small pieces)
2-4 tbsp ice water
4 oz finely shredded sharp cheddar

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine almond flour, coconut flour, arrowroot starch, xanthan gum, garlic powder and salt. Pulse a few times to combine.
  • Sprinkle butter over almond flour mixture and pulse until it resembles fine crumbs.
  • With processor running on low, add water through feeding tube 1 tablespoon at a time until dough clumps together.
  • Form into a flat disc and cover with plastic wrap. Chill 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 300F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Take about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it between your palms into a cigar shape. Continue to roll gently on a piece of parchment or a silicon baking mat into a long thin stick, less than half an inch thick and 7 or 8 inches long (if it breaks at any point, you can easily press it back together).
  • Sprinkle with a few teaspoons of grated cheddar, gently pressing the cheese into the stick to adhere. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
  • Repeat with remaining dough and cheese.
  • Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until firm and cheese is lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool completely (they won't be crisp until they are fully cooled).
