Mock Matzo - Gluten-Free Non-Gebrokts Matzah Crackers are a perfect snack during Passover. These crackers are an excellent gluten-free alternative to traditional matzo crackers. They are super easy and quick to make with only six ingredients, and they are crunchy and delicious. The best part about these crackers is that they are non-gebrokts (literally meaning ‘un-soaked’), which means that they don't contain any moisture or leavening agents. They are perfect for people observing traditional Jewish dietary laws during Passover.

Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2.In a medium bowl, whisk together potato starch, almond meal, flax seed meal, and salt.
3.Add solid coconut oil or vegetable shortening. Mix the ingredients with a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse sand.
4.Then, stir in the warm water until a dough forms.
5.Roll out the dough on a piece of parchment paper. Use a pizza cutter to score the dough into square or rectangular crackers.
6.Bake the crackers in the oven for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Cool the crackers on the baking sheet before breaking them into pieces.

PROS

These Mock Matzo crackers are gluten-free and perfect for Passover.
They are easy and quick to make with only six ingredients.

The crackers are crunchy and delicious with a subtle almond flavor that makes them perfect for snacking or dipping.

CONS

The crackers are best eaten fresh and will not stay crispy for long if stored in an airtight container.
It can be tough to achieve a crispy texture without burning the crackers, so be careful when baking them.

While these crackers are gluten-free, they are not necessarily healthier than traditional matzo crackers.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Mock Matzo crackers are a great gluten-free alternative to traditional matzo crackers. They are made with almond meal instead of wheat flour and contain flax seed meal, which is a good source of fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
Potato starch is a lower glycemic index carbohydrate, which means that it causes less of a spike in blood sugar levels than wheat flour. Coconut oil may also have some health benefits, including improving cholesterol levels and supporting heart health.
