Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse both flours, cheese, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, lemon zest, and thyme. Add butter and cream cheese; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add lemon juice and pulse just until dough comes together.
- Transfer dough to a work surface. Divide into two pieces, and shape each into a log about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Wrap separately in plastic; refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to 2 days.
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Slice logs crosswise into rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Place rounds on parchment-lined baking sheets. Top each with a tiny thyme sprig (if using) and bake until firm and golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients well in a small bowl; everything should be moist and the dough should hold together somewhat.
- Put the dough on a well-greased sheet of parchment paper or heavy-duty aluminum foil, about 15x18" (it's helpful to crumble the dough mixture and spread the crumbs in a roughly rectangular shape on the foil).
- Cover the dough with a piece of wax paper that's been sprayed with non-stick spray.
- Roll out the dough to about 1/8" thick or slightly thinner; try to get the dough to an even thickness; you can also carefully peel up the wax paper and reshape the dough to get it as close to rectangular as possible, about 9x9" square.
- Replace the wax paper and continue rolling until nice and even.
- Peel off the wax paper and use a pizza or ravioli cutter to score the dough into approximately 48 1-inch squares.
- Lift the foil and set it on the oven rack and bake them at 325º for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Check after 10 minutes and if crackers at outer edge are getting pretty brown, remove those and continue baking the rest until golden; use a thin metal spatula to very gently pry the crackers from the foil.
- Break them apart on the score lines and let cool.

Steps:
- 1. Break apart club crackers at perforations and place all on jelly roll pan or cookie sheet. sprinkle almonds on crackers.
- 2. In saucepan, melt butter, vanilla and sugar and stir until slightly bubbly. Drizzle hot mixture over almonds and bake at 350 for 8 minutes. Don't allow to burn. Remove immediately and place on waxed paper.
Tips:
- Choose the right almond flour: Not all almond flours are created equal. For the best results, use a finely ground almond flour that is made from blanched almonds. Blanched almonds have had their skins removed, which gives the flour a lighter color and a more delicate flavor.
- Measure your ingredients accurately: This is especially important for gluten-free baking, as the proportions of ingredients are critical. Be sure to use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients, or use measuring cups that have been leveled off with a knife.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps to firm it up, making it easier to roll out and shape. You can chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Bake the crackers until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are crispy and flavorful. Keep an eye on the crackers in the oven, as they can burn easily.
Conclusion:
With their nutty flavor and satisfying crunch, these almond crackers are the perfect healthy snack. They are also easy to make, and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a healthy and delicious snack, give these almond crackers a try!
