🛒 Ingredients

4 servings

4
  • 200 g granulated tapioca
  • 2 eggs
  • 40 g grated parmesan (or nutritional yeast)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine the tapioca with beaten eggs and olive oil, mixing until a uniform dough forms.

  2. 2

    Add the parmesan, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, sesame seeds, and chia seeds. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Shape small flat discs about 4 cm in diameter on a lightly oiled sheet of parchment paper.

  4. 4

    Place the crackers in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 180 °C (356 °F) for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  5. 5

    Let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes before serving — they get even crispier as they cool.

💡 Chef's Tip

For an extra protein boost, stir in 2 tablespoons of unflavored whey protein. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
