Homemade Crackers

Homemade Crackers
Hosting a New Year's party? Try these flavorful Homemade Crackers instead of the usual (and greasy) store-bought snacks to serve along side dips or to hold Canapes. They are packed with fresh herbs and Parmesan cheese, are sinfully delicious and BAKED! So no need to feel bad for eating a whole batch of them ;)

Are you wondering how crunchy they are? VERY, making them extra kid-friendly specially considering you can cut them in any shape you want. 
One of my favorite ways to eat these Homemade Crackers is with a tomato Bruschetta Mix. What's yours? I would love to read you dip ideas in the comment lines!!! :)

Preparation time: 1 hr
Yield: Delicious snacks for 2 adults
Level: Easy / Medium

Ingredients:
  • 100g All-purpose Flour 
  • 50g Warm water
  • 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary (finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Thyme 
  • 1/2 cup Shredded Parmesan
  • Pinch of salt
  • Olive oil
Mix flour, rosemary, thyme and Parmesan together and dissolve the salt in the water. Add water to flour mixture, and knead it until the dough develops a homogeneous look. Wrap it with plastic-wrap and leave it resting in the fridge for 30 minutes. 

Using a pasta presser or a rolling pin, roll the dough so it's about 1 mm thick. If using a pasta machine, run it through the press until one level before the smallest opening. 

Cut the dough sheets into the desired cracker shape. Lay them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush them with olive oil. Bake them in a pre-heated oven at 400 F (200 C) for about 8 minutes or until golden brown.
