Instructions: Mix flours well in a separate bowl. Set aside.

Whisk together the Parmesan, 3/4 cup "flour", lemon zest, about half of the pepper, and garlic powder. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well and carefully blend in the remaining ingredients, adding more "flour" if necessary until the dough barely forms a ball.

Knead the dough on a "floured" surface until it is smooth and even. Form the dough into a 12-inch log and wrap tightly. Chill for several hours.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and heavily grease several baking sheets.

Slice the crackers into 1/4-inch thick slices and place about 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining black pepper.

Bake for about 9 to 10 minutes, or until firm and pale golden brown on the edges. Remove from the baking sheet and let cool on a paper towel lined wire rack.

This recipe yields approximately 50 crackers; less than 1 carb gram per cracker.
