Instructions

- Add almond flour, garlic powder and eggs.
- Stir until well combined and a ball of dough forms.
- Roll out dough in between 2 sheets of parchment paper using a rolling pin.
- Make it into 2 large rectangular shapes (each one to fit the size of your cookie sheet) that are about 1/4 inch thick.
- Remove the top layer of parchment and cut dough into 12 square-ish parts (6 per rectangle) using a rolling pizza cutter.
- Leave on bottom layer of parchment and transfer to a cookie sheet.
- Bake for each rectangle for 1 minute just to make it a bit easier to work with but not enough to cook it.
