This recipe for gluten free pizza shapes is a healthy alternative to refined and processed savoury crackers that typically contain gluten, dairy and sugar.

I use almond meal as the base ‘flour’ for these crackers creating a high nutrient snack that is very satisfying. With a few natural savoury flavours added these crackers take on the flavours of pizza making them the perfect gluten free “pizza shape”.

These are great lunch box snacks for those who can have nuts and make for a yummy afternoon tea. You can also serve these paleo crackers with your favourite dips such asHommus,Guacamole, Beetroot Dip or Dairy Free Basil Pesto.

Nourish 101:

• These crackers are low carb and rich in heathy fats, protein and vitamin E.
• Almonds provide a healthy dose of calcium for strong bones and teeth and are also beneficial for keeping blood sugar levels balanced and are in fact known to help diabetics.
