Description

Easy, cheesy and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 5 Tablespoons Cold Unsalted Butter, Cubed
  • 8 ounces, weight Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
  • ½ teaspoons Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • ½ teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Garlic Salt
  • 3 pinches Extra Kosher Salt (for Sprinkling)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine all of the ingredients (everything except the extra salt for sprinkling) in a food processor and pulse until well combined and large crumbs are sticking together.

Using your hands, create one large dough ball with the large crumbs (it should stick together easily). Roll dough very thinly onto a cutting board. You will need to work in batches based on how big your cutting board is.

Cut rolled dough into small squares and gently lift squares using a knife. Place them on a silicone baking mat lined baking sheet. (If you don’t have one of these, try using non-stick spray on a baking sheet. Report back and let us know how that works!)

If you’d like, you can press the edge of a fork in each cracker to create the classic Cheez-It design.

Sprinkle crackers with extra salt. About 3 pinches should do, depending on how salty you like your crackers.

Bake for 10 minutes or until firm and a golden color (some like them more brown than others). Cool and add more salt if needed. Store in an airtight container.

Makes a whoooole lot!

We didn’t try the no-stick spray, but as I don’t have a silpat mat, I used parchment and it worked great. These were yummy.

We used a white sharp instead of orange and it made the crackers not look as “normal” as yours. They were still delicious though.
