Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup cup All-Purpose Flour + 2 tablespoons extra for dusting, if needed
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Pepper black, freshly ground, preferred
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Butter softened, unsalted
- 100 grams Cheddar Cheese shredded; sharp cheddar recommended
- 1 tbsp Milk whole milk preferred
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 320°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combining Dry Ingredients
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, and baking powder.
Crumb Mixture
- In a food processor, combine the softened butter and shredded cheddar cheese. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Dough Formation
- Add the dry ingredients to the food processor. Pulse until just combined. Add the milk and pulse 1-2 times until the dough starts to come together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead for 30 seconds until a smooth dough forms. Do not overwork.
Shaping and Cutting
- Form the dough into a disc, about 1-inch thick. Roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into 1-inch squares.
Baking
- Transfer the crackers to the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between each cracker. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Do not overbake.
Cooling and Storage
- Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before storing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Cheese Crackers
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the dry ingredients.
- If your dough seems too dry, add a teaspoon of milk at a time until it comes together easily. If it’s too wet, add a tablespoon of flour.
- To prevent sticking, ensure that your baking sheet is properly lined with parchment paper and lightly flour your work surface.
- Experiment with different cheeses! Sharp cheddar is classic, but try other varieties for unique flavor profiles.
