    How to Make Keto Doritos: Step-by-Step Guide

    Cooking Methods

    • Baking

    Preparation Steps

    1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    2. In a bowl, combine the almond flour, flaxseed, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and salt.
    3. Add the shredded cheese, egg, and olive oil, and mix until a dough forms.

    Cooking Instructions

    1. Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out very thin (about ⅛ inch thick).
    2. Remove the top layer of parchment paper and use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into triangle shapes.
    3. Transfer the triangles to the baking sheet, spacing them out evenly.
    4. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the chips are golden brown and crispy.
    5. Optional: Once baked, sprinkle the chips with cheddar cheese powder for that extra cheesy Doritos flavor.
    6. Let them cool completely on the baking sheet to harden.

    Chef's pro tip

    To achieve the best crunch, make sure to roll out the dough as thin as possible. Also, let the chips sit in the oven with the door slightly ajar for an additional 5-10 minutes after turning off the heat for extra crispiness.

    How to Make It Healthier

    To reduce the calorie content, you can use low-fat cheese or substitute half the almond flour with flaxseed meal for added fiber. You can also bake the chips on a cooling rack placed on top of the baking sheet for even heat distribution, which helps reduce the amount of oil needed.

    Time-Saving Tips

    • Premade seasoning: Mix the spices in advance and store them in a jar so you can whip up the dough quickly when you're ready.
    • Use pre-shredded cheese: Save time by buying pre-shredded cheese, but make sure it’s free of added starches.

    What Can I Prepare Ahead of Time

    • Dough: Prepare the dough, but note that due to the inclusion of raw egg, it is not recommended to store it for more than 4 hours in the chiller. When ready to bake, roll it out, cut, and bake fresh.
    • Pre-cut chips: Cut the chips, but be aware that due to the raw egg, storing them for longer than 4 hours in the chiller is not advised. Bake them fresh for the best results.

    Storage and Reheating Instructions

    Storage Instructions

    • Store the chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
    • For longer storage, keep them in the freezer for up to 1 month.

    Reheating Best Practices

    • If the chips lose their crispiness, reheat them in the oven at 350°F for 5 minutes to restore their crunch.

    What to serve with Keto Dortitos?

    You can pair these keto Doritos with:

    • Keto Guacamole: Pair these chips with a creamy and rich guacamole for a satisfying dip.
    • Salsa: Add a fresh and spicy contrast by serving these with your favorite salsa.
    • Sour cream or ranch dip: For a cooling balance, serve them with sour cream or a flavorful ranch dip.

    Recipe Wrap-Up and Conclusion

    These Keto Doritos are the perfect crunchy snack to satisfy your cravings while staying low-carb. With a cheesy, savory flavor and a crispy texture, they’re bound to be a favorite for game days, parties, or just munching on at home. Give this recipe a try and enjoy a keto-friendly version of the classic snack—because who says keto has to be boring?

    Frequently asked questions

    Yes, you can make these Doritos dairy-free by using dairy-free shredded cheese as a substitute. For a cheesy flavor without dairy, opt for a high-quality dairy-free cheese that melts and browns well. Note that nutritional yeast isn't the best dairy-free substitute as it does not melt or bake like traditional cheese.

    Make sure to roll out the dough thin enough. If they are too thick, they won’t crisp up properly. You can also bake them for a few extra minutes for more crunch.

    Absolutely! Try adding smoked paprika, cumin, or even a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
