Wheat Crackers

I was trying to find a saltine recipe but ended up finding this recipe.  It is quite tasty, and I think would be so good with pimento cheese or anything like that.  Thank you Little House Living for the recipe.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 c. wheat flour
  • 4 T. butter (softened or melted)
  • 1 1/2 T Sugar
  • 1/2 t. salt + some for sprinkling
  • 1/4 c. water (more or less)

Directions:

In a bowl, mix together the sugar, wheat flour, and salt. 

Add in the butter. Mix until crumbly.

Slowly add in the water. You may need more or less.  Mixing with a fork combines the ingredients better and still lets them be flaky.

Roll the dough out until it's very thin. (It will not rise at all so just roll it out to be the thinness you desire to eat!) You will need to roll out the dough on parchment paper if you aren't using a stonewear pan so it doesn't stick.

Score your crackers with a pizza cutter. If your crackers aren't perfectly square, no big deal

Sprinkle with a little more salt.

Bake at 400F for about 15 minutes. Watch the crackers after 10 minutes to make sure they don't get too "done".  They will burn quickly!

Enjoy plain, with cheese, dip, or any other way you normally enjoy crackers!
