Almond Chips...er...Crackers

So I tried a new dough tonight.  I bought shaved almonds, not quite flour, still with the consistency of almonds.  Once I added water it became very messy.  The consistency was like couscous. I tried to ball the dough up and flatten it and that was a huge failure.  So I added some brown rice flour and the batter became very thick.  

 I was then able to flatten them out and put them on a hot skillet.  The dough was very dense.  After about 2 minutes on the skillet the dough had hardened and I was able to flip them easily.  After another minute or two I was able to cut them up in triangles.

 After frying them in olive oil the chips were very thick and dense.  The outcome was almost like a cracker.  So my almond crackers were born.
