Here’s a simple recipe for homemade cheese crackers that you can try:
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese (sharp or mild, depending on your preference)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional, for added flavor)
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (cut into small cubes)
- 2–4 tablespoons cold water (or more, if needed)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Mix dry ingredients: In a food processor, combine the flour, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, garlic powder, and paprika. Pulse to combine.
-
Add the butter: Add the cold butter cubes to the food processor and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
Add water: Gradually add the cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough starts to come together. You want it to be firm, not sticky.
-
Roll out the dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about 1/8 inch thick.
-
Cut the crackers: Using a pizza cutter, knife, or cookie cutter, cut the dough into small squares or any shape you prefer.
-
Bake the crackers: Place the crackers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking.
-
Cool and serve: Let the crackers cool completely on a wire rack. Enjoy!
These homemade cheese crackers are crispy, flavorful, and perfect for snacking. Would you like any variations or tips on making them extra cheesy?
