Homemade Cheddar Crackers
Crispy, bite-sized cheese crackers made with just four wholesome ingredients. Real cheddar cheese is the star here — golden, crunchy, and utterly addictive for little snack lovers.
Ingredients
- 225 grams Cheddar Cheese
- 1.25 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 4 tablespoons Cold Unsalted Butter
- 0.25 cup Plain Yogurt
Instructions
- In a food processor, pulse the grated cheddar, flour, and cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the yogurt and pulse for about one minute until the dough comes together. It will be crumbly but should hold when pressed.
- Shape the dough into a flat disc, wrap tightly, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 175 °C (350 °F). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 3 mm (1/8 inch) thickness.
- Cut into small squares (about 2.5 cm / 1 inch) using a knife or pizza wheel. Poke a tiny hole in the centre of each cracker with a skewer.
- Transfer to the prepared tray, spacing them slightly apart.
- Bake for 17–19 minutes until golden and crisp. Cool completely on the tray. They will firm up as they cool.
- Safety note: Break crackers into smaller pieces for younger toddlers and always supervise during eating, as the texture is crunchy.
