Description

So simple and good, crackers made with 100% whole wheat, sharp cheddar, and a little butter.

Ingredients

  • 1-½ cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 12 ounces, weight Sharp Cheddar
  • 8 Tablespoons Chilled Butter
  • ¼ teaspoons Onion Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt

Preparation

Dump all the ingredients in your food processor and run for 1–2 minutes or until everything forms a big dough ball. Easy!

Pull out the dough ball, wrap it in plastic, and let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes to cool off. This will make it much easier to roll out.

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Roll the dough out to about 1/8” thick on a floured surface. Cut out shapes with 1″ to 2” cookie cutters (or just use a pizza cutter to score into 1″ to 2″ squares), then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Bake for 12–15 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.

About the food processor – I haven’t tried it and I’m not sure if it’d work or not. My advice would be to shred the cheese as finely as you can and soften the butter, then mix it up with your hands.

I think the softened butter would be OK because you’ll still have all the individual cheese shreds to melt into the crackers as they bake for a flaky texture.

Let us know how it goes if you try it!

I want to try these but I don’t have a food processor. Can I just mix it with my hands and knead a few times?

Very easy and really tasty. The dough was a little crumbly, but I was able to work with it.
