Maybe graham crackers weren’t the first thing you missed when you started a ketogenic diet. But you’ll be thankful for this keto graham crackers recipe the next time you’re sitting around the bonfire and s’mores are mentioned!
Watch how easy it is to get one step closer to those s’mores:
Why Can’t I Just Eat Regular Graham Crackers?
I know it’s a lot easier to just pull a box off a shelf and eat its contents. Crackers, cookies, chips, and their friends require little cost or effort.
But, there’s a reason you chose to be on a keto diet, and you know those pre-packaged goodies will derail your efforts.
Here’s why: The first ingredient in graham crackers is enriched flour, and the second ingredient is sugar.
That results in 11 grams of total carbohydrates in a serving, which is one of the large rectangle pieces. And many people don’t stop at one.
Keto graham crackers are tasty and easy to make. You just need to replace the flour, sugar, and fats used in traditional graham crackers with ingredients that won’t knock you out of ketosis.
For the flour, I use a mix of almond flour and flax meal. Instead of sugar, I use erythritol, a keto-friendly sweetener.
Ghee fills in for the fat, and cinnamon, baking powder, and an egg round out the list of key players.
In just 10 minutes you’ll have a sheet of delicious graham ready to go.
How to Enjoy Your Keto Graham Crackers
Not to state the obvious, but keto graham, crackers open your world to s’mores. Of course, you’ll need to whip up some keto marshmallows to make this happen.
You can also make some keto ice cream and crumble up some graham crackers for a topping.
I like eating keto graham crackers with almond butter, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.
Or, enjoy these graham crackers alone. They’re a great sweet snack all by themselves.
Mind Your Macros
Careful keto dieters know that the right balance of fats, protein, and net carbs will get you into ketosis.

Mix all the ingredients together well to form a dough.
Place dough on a piece of parchment paper and roll thin. Score with a sharp knife or pizza cutter into 2 by 2-inch squares. Poke a few holes on top of each with a fork for decoration.
Place entire parchment paper onto a baking tray and bake for 8-10 minutes until just starting to brown. Let cool.
