Cooking Instructions

35 mins
  1. 1

    Oven temp - 375°F fahrenheit, bake time - 8 to 10 minutes, yields - about 18 large crackers.

  2. 2

    Stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt, baking soda, & sugar in a mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Cut the butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry blender tool or with a finely tined fork. Pre cut the butter into small cubes to speed the process.

  4. 4

    Using a fork, stir in the shredded cheese of your choice, cold water, & vinegar. Knead the dough inside of the bowl until it forms a smooth texture. Shape into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap & place in the freezer for about 15 to 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Pre-heat oven to 375°F fahrenheit. Prepare a baking sheet with grease or parchment.

  6. 6

    Divide the ball in half & roll the portion out to a paper thin round. It should be a little over a foot in diameter. Then cut like a pie using a pizza or pastry wheel cutter. The yield portion is based off of a equal 8 piece cutting, but feel free to get creative or do smaller crackers.

  7. 7

    Move the dough triangles to the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with pepper (if desired), being sure to press the topping into the cracker a little. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden. Cool on a wire cooling rack. Repeat with other dough ball.

  8. 8

    Crackers will store in an air tight container after cooled for up to 5 days, but are crispest served immediately. Try other toppings too, such as, sesame seeds, coarse sea salt, or dried herbs.
