Homemade cheese crackers are pretty easy to make, and you can modify them to your liking. I omitted salt to reduce sodium, but you can add it for that salt craving. You can also omit parmesan if you want to keep it low sodium. (It will have a subtle cheese & corn flavor that way.)
I have a detailed video tutorial, so don’t forget to watch it before making it.
Homemade Cheese Crackers
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup corn flour
- 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/3 cup hot water
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350F.
-
Add all-purpose flour, corn flour, cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, and olive oil to a food processor. Blend until combined.
-
With the food processor running, drizzle 1/3 cup hot water. The dough will stick together when pressed. If it doesn't, add a little bit more water.
-
Dump the dough onto a silicone baking mat (or floured surface) and gather it into a ball.
-
Roll out the dough half-way using a rolling pin, and move the dough onto parchment paper.
-
Roll out the dough until it is less than 1/4" thick. Thinner the crispier.
-
Place the parchment paper with dough onto a baking sheet.
-
Cut the cracker into your desired shape, either using a cookie cutter or cutting into squares.
-
Bake for about 12 minutes until edges are golden. Timing will vary based on the thickness of the crackers, so keep an eye on it.
-
Store in an airtight container. It's supposed to last a week, but we always finished them in one day!
