How to Make Crackers at Home

all-purpose flour,

sugar

salt

olive oil

water

fennel sea salt

Heat the oven to 450°F: Place a rack in the lower third of the oven and heat to 450°F. Sprinkle a baking sheet lightly with flour and set aside.

Mix together the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt.

Add the oil and water: Add the oil and water to the flour mixture. Stir until a soft, sticky dough is formed. If a lot of loose flour remains in the bottom of the bowl and the surface of the dough, add more water a tablespoon at a time until all the flour is incorporated.

Divide and shape the dough into a square: Divide the dough into two halves and set one half aside. Sprinkle your work surface lightly with flour and set the other half on top. Pat it into a thick square with your hands.

Roll out the dough: Working from the center of the dough out, roll the dough into a rectangle roughly 1/8-inch thick or thinner. If the dough starts to shrink back as you roll it, let it rest, uncovered, for 5 minutes and then continue rolling.

Sprinkle dough with topping (optional): Brush the surface of the dough very lightly with water. Combine the seeds in a small bowl and sprinkle half of them (roughly 1 1/2 tablespoons) evenly over the surface of the dough. See Additional Notes below for additional ideas for toppings and flavorings.

Cut the dough into cracker-sized rectangles: Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into individual crackers roughly 1-inch by 2-inches. Alternatively, cut the crackers into squares, diamonds, or use cookie cutters.

Transfer crackers to baking sheet and prick with fork: Transfer the crackers to the baking sheet using a metal dough scraper or spatula. It&#x27;s fine to crowd the crackers very close to each other. Prick each cracker with the tines of a fork to prevent them from puffing during baking.

Bake for 12-15 minutes: Bake the crackers in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are browned. Thinner crackers will bake more quickly than thicker ones; you can remove the crackers as they brown to your liking and continue baking the rest. While the first batch of crackers is baking, roll out and cut the remaining dough.

Cool and store the crackers: Transfer the baked crackers to a wire rack to cool completely. The crackers will crisp further as they cool. Store the crackers in an airtight container on the counter for 3-5 days. If you&#x27;re crackers are a little old and less-than-crispy, lay them on a baking sheet and put them in a 350°F oven for a few minutes to re-crisp.

This recipe mimics an extra-crunchy, seed-topped whole-gain cracker you may find at your supermarket. These are great for spreads and dips of all kinds.
Thanks to input from our readers about the baking time, we've reduced it by 10 minutes, as of August, 2011. We've also added salt as an optional topping, to enhance flavor. Sometimes it takes a community to build a recipe!

Place a fine mesh strainer over a medium bowl and strain the 4 cans of minced clams, separating the meat from the juices.

Using a 6-quart dutch oven or pot of similar size, fry bacon over medium-high heat until fat renders and the edges begin to crisp.

Add onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Reduce heat to low and add carrots, celery and flour, stirring constantly for 3-5 minutes to avoid lumps.

Add black pepper, thyme, reserved clam juices, chicken stock, diced potatoes, and bay leaf. Stir to incorporate, then cover and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to a simmer and let cook until potatoes are tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove bay leaf and add cream. Allow chowder to simmer for an additional 10-20 minutes until soup has thickened to an appropriate consistency.

Add in reserved clam meat and cook for an additional 2-4 minutes.

Remove from heat and serve with oyster crackers

Tangy cream cheese and sour cream play up the shrimp’s natural sweetness in this summer appetizer.

Creamy Shrimp On Crackers

lb. shrimp, peeled, deveined

Tbsp. cream cheese, room temperature

celery

lemon zest

lemon juice

butter crackers (such as Town House)

Tbsp. Barbecue Seasoning or paprika

Tangy cream cheese and sour cream play up the shrimp’s natural sweetness in this traditional appetizer from Omar Tate, chef-owner of the pop-up dinner series Honeysuckle. Hot tip: Poach your shrimp and make your dressing in advance to save time, but don’t mix them until an hour before serving, or the shrimp will get tough.

Bon Appétit

Creamy Shrimp on Crackers

Combine shrimp, 1 Tbsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¾ tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 quart water in a medium pot.  Set over medium-low heat (you want water to slowly come to a bare simmer) and cook until shrimp are just cooked through, 10–12 minutes total. Drain and transfer shrimp to a plate; let cool.

Meanwhile, mix together sour cream, cream cheese, and remaining ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a medium bowl. Mix in celery, oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice.

Slice chilled shrimp in half lengthwise, then crosswise into ¼"-thick pieces. Fold shrimp into dressing.

To serve, top each cracker with 1 Tbsp. dressed shrimp; sprinkle with seasoning.

Do ahead: Shrimp can be poached and dressing made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill separately.

Who can resist crunchy cheese snack crackers? Our gluten-free version is a dream come true for those following a GF diet.

form a round ball of dough. cover, and let rest for about 4 hours.

preheat oven to 350°F.

roll dough out thinly, to about 1/16th inch, and transfer onto baking sheet. this should cover and span about 1 cookie sheet. if desired, sprinkle additional cheese as a light, even layer on top.

to create square crackers, cut dough with pizza cutter or knife into squares. if you&#x27;re like me and like more rustic looking crackers, you can skip this step.

bake crackers for 20-25 minutes, or until edges are golden brown. remove from oven and let cool for at least 15 more minutes.

if uncut, break up crackers into smaller pieces. store in airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or the freezer for long term storage.

bring to a party and watch them disappear (if you don&#x27;t eat them all yourself first).

Warning: these rosemary crackers are addictive! The dough is just a simple mix of flour, water and oil, into which you can add a flavour, such as rosemary

Homemade rosemary crackers

plain flour

tsp flaky sea salt

golden caster sugar

watermixed oil

Set your oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put all the ingredients in a <a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/top-five-mixing-bowls">bowl</a> and mix with your hands to combine to a rough dough. If it&rsquo;s sticky, add a little more flour so it&rsquo;s nice and smooth.

On a sheet of baking parchment sprinkled with flour, roll the dough out to the thickness of a &pound;1 coin, then use a pizza cutter or <a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/kitchen-knives-how-buy-best">knife</a> and cut it into squares.

Brush the squares with a little water and sprinkle with some salt and the 1 tsp chopped rosemary. Prick each square once in the middle with a fork.

Transfer the baking parchment straight onto a <a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/kimberley-wilsons-top-5-baking-trays">baking sheet</a>, separate each square of dough a little, and bake in the hot oven for 12-15 mins or until the crackers are slightly golden. Cool, then store in a tin for up to two weeks.
