Lite parmesan & spice crackers

Welcome to our delightful recipe for Lite Parmesan & Spice Crackers! These savory crackers are perfect for snacking or serving as an appetizer at your next gathering. With a combination of all-purpose white wheat flour, a touch of grated parmesan cheese, and a flavorful spice mix, these crackers are both light and delicious.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Prepare Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and baking powder. Stir together until the mixture is well combined.
3. Add Butter and Cheese:
Cut the butter into small chunks and add it to the bowl along with the grated parmesan cheese. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter and cheese into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Add Spice Mix:
Add the spice mix of your choice to the flour mixture and stir thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices.
5. Incorporate Water:
Gradually add the water to the flour mixture, stirring continuously with a spatula or spoon until the dough begins to come together. You may need to adjust the water a little based on the humidity and the specific flour you are using; aim for a firm but pliable dough.
6. Knead and Roll Out Dough:
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it briefly to ensure it’s smooth and uniform. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to an even thickness of about 1/8 inch (3 mm).
7. Cut the Crackers:
Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into desired shapes. You can make squares, rectangles, or use cookie cutters for fun shapes. Transfer the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
8. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the crackers are crisp. The baking time might vary based on your oven, so keep an eye on them to prevent overbaking.
9. Cool and Serve:
Remove the crackers from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, enjoy your lite parmesan & spice crackers as a delicious snack or with your favorite dip.
10. Store:
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.

Tips:

- For a finer texture, use a food processor to mix the ingredients and achieve a uniform dough.

- If the dough is too dry, add a little more water, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches the right consistency.

- To ensure even baking, roll the dough out to a consistent thickness before cutting into cracker shapes.

- Experiment with different spice mixes to customize the flavor to your liking.

- Store the crackers in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.

We hope you enjoyed making and tasting these Lite Parmesan & Spice Crackers! They are a wonderful addition to any snack platter and pair perfectly with your favorite dips or cheeses. Don't forget to share your crunchy creations with friends and family!
