These homemade Rosemary Cassava Flour Crackers are the perfect crunchy snack - Paleo, Vegan, free of the top 8 allergens and delicious. This cassava cracker recipe is great for packing in lunches, adding to a snack board or eating with your favorite Paleo dip.
Crackers are something that I used to eat all the time as a child (hello Cheez-Its, Wheat Thins and Ritz). But, as I got older and more health conscious, I quit purchasing and eating those types of foods.
Having a child, however, changed my outlook once again and we now buy crackers ALL THE TIME!
Thankfully, there are a lot more options available. Many of which are actually healthy. But I've also learned to make my own healthy cracker recipes like these Rosemary Cassava Flour Crackers.
Healthy Cassava Cracker Recipe
This rosemary cracker recipe has so many great qualities, including a delicious flavor and the perfect crunch. In addition, these crackers are:
- Paleo, Vegan & free of top allergens
- easy to make
- nut free - made with cassava flour
- tasty - flavored with rosemary and salt
- kid approved - my children love them
The only downside to these homemade Vegan crackers is that they take time to make. Yes, it is easier to buy crackers at the store. You don't have to make the dough, roll the dough and bake the crackers.
But, homemade Paleo crackers are cost effective and DO taste good!
Saving Money By Making Your Own Crackers
If you're buying Paleo friendly, completely grain free and dairy free crackers without preservatives and additives, then you're probably spending a lot on them.
Some of my favorite Paleo crackers
to buy cost up to $7.50 a box AND contain fewer servings than conventional brands.
Quite often, I don't want to spend money like that! So, in-between waiting for my favorite brands to go on sale, I opt for making my own crackers.
Homemade, Paleo friendly crackers are much cheaper than what you can purchase in-store and online. The only downside is that they aren't as convenient (because you do have to take the time to make them) and they have a much shorter shelf life. But with the right recipe, they taste just as great!
Ingredients In Homemade Rosemary Cassava Flour Crackers
These Vegan rosemary crackers are made with whole foods, all naturally gluten free, dairy free and grain free. Here's what you need:
- cassava flour
- sunflower seeds
- pumpkin seeds
- rosemary
- salt
- olive oil
- water
How to Make Cassava Crackers
This cassava root cracker recipe is made in a food processor, rolled between parchment paper and baked in the oven. Here are the steps:
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
In a food processor, combine sunflower seeds and salt. Blend to a fine flour. Then, add in the remaining dry ingredients: cassava flour, rosemary and salt. Blend well.
Next, add in the wet ingredients: olive oil and water. Blend until the dough starts to clump. If the dough appears too dry, add a bit more water. You can also add more water after rolling the dough, if you find it's not holding together.
Roll the dough into a ball, flatten, then roll between two sheets of parchment paper. The crackers should be about ⅛-inch thick.
Use a knife or pizza cutter to cut the crackers into 1-inch squares. Optional: top with flaked sea salt.
Next, transfer the crackers (on the parchment paper) to a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes of baking, remove the crackers from the oven, flip and cook an additional 5-10 minutes. The baking time will vary slightly depending on cracker size and thickness.
How to Store Homemade Cassava Flour Crackers
These gluten free rosemary crackers are best eaten within a couple days, but last up to a week in an air-tight sealed container. Make sure to cool them to room temperature prior to storing.
What to Eat With Rosemary Crackers
My boys love eating these healthy rosemary crackers with mashed avocado, which makes a great filling, nutritious snack. Some other great dips and spreads include:
- almond milk cream cheese
- Cashew cheese spreads
- roasted vegetable dips
- Paleo ranch dip
- guacamole
- almond butter

Notes
*If the dough isn't rolling out easily (cracking and breaking) add a little more water (about 1 tablespoon), and knead the dough a few more times.
**Bake time really depends on how thick you cut the crackers. Edge pieces may bake longer than center pieces. Keep a close eye on the crackers during that second baking interval.

I haven't tried that substitution but I assume it would work. Let me know how they turn out!
Morgan says
I tried making these twice and both times were a fail😭 I’m not what went wrong. I followed the recipe EXACTLY and the dough was still too wet to form into a ball so I added in more flour. It turned out too gummy and whenever I tried rolling it out, it stuck to the parchment paper so I had to reroll and not roll it out thin. I’m not sure if the brand of cassava flour I used was just way to absorbent or what?
Katie says
Did you use Otto's cassava flour? It's the only cassava flour I use in my recipes - the best quality! That may make a difference.
Janet says
This is a DELICIOUS cracker recipe! Thanks so much for sharing! I will be making them often! I love that they come out crunchy. To 'experiment' with the baking, I halved the dough, and the first half baked perfectly. My oven must have just gotten hotter, because the second batch overbaked, and didn't taste quite as good. So, I'll be sure to watch the crackers more closely next time. But overall, I love this recipe! Thanks again!

Due to health reasons I had to give up all grains. Grain free store bought crackers are extremely expensive so I decided to start making my own. Made this last night. The crackers came out good. My food processor didn’t grind the seeds well so I would recommend using a coffee grinder instead of a food processor to grind to seeds. This will be my go to crackers to make. Thanks so much for the recipe.
