Introduction

Thin, crispy and gently spiced.

This is how it rolls in my world. I started making these low carb, grain and sugar free crisps as buttery, coconut crisps – almost ANZAC like in flavour.

Halfway through the process, I found myself thinking that they might be nice as chocolate instead, and then considering the addition of delicious wattleseeds…and then adding a drop of Cassia oil for that final depth of flavour.

Buttery, coconut crisps they’re not.

Incredibly tasty, they totally are, and at just over 1 gram of net carbs per crisp, you can indulge in a couple with your coffee.

Enjoy!

The recipe

Ingredients

60 grams of butter
70 grams of Swerve or sweetener of choice
2 teaspoons of molasses
1/4 teaspoon of xanthan gum
25 grams of almond meal
25 grams of desiccated coconut
10 grams of raw cacao powder
1 Tablespoons of roasted wattleseeds
1 drop of Cassia oil (optional)

Directions

Step 1
Pre-heat oven to 170 degrees C
Step 2
Place butter, wattleseeds, sweetener and molasses in a saucepan on the stove and melt over a gentle heat.
Step 3
Continue heating until all of the sweetener has dissolved and then let it sit for five minutes.
Step 4
Take the xanthan gum and sprinkle it over the surface, very quickly whisking it in to avoid lumps.
Step 5
Add all other ingredients and mix well. The mixture will thicken slightly after a few minutes, so don’t worry if it seems thin.
Step 6
Place spoonfuls of mixture on a lined baking tray, leaving about 5cm of space in between for crisps to spread. Roll each spoonful into a ball and then flatten with your fingers.
Step 7
Bake for 10-15 minutes, keeping a very close eye on the edges to make sure they don’t burn.
Step 8
Let crisps cool fully on the tray once it’s out of the oven.
Step 9
You can eat them as is, or finish with a drizzle (or dunk) of dark chocolate.
