Homemade Parmesan cheese Crackers

        

Did you know the word 'cracker' is originated from the crackling sound created by the accidental burning of the biscuit.??That's really interesting..isn't it??
  
 Crackers are dough-based products, thin like biscuits made with a grain and flavored with seeds, herbs, spices, salt, etc.
 
  These savory snacks are loved by one and all and eaten with dips, spreads, etc. Usually, the stored bought ones are made with All-purpose flour, lots of preservatives, and artificial colors which make them unhealthy for consumption, especially kids...So here I am sharing one of the easiest, yummiest and healthiest cracker recipes with minimal ingredients which don't have any preservative, colors but made with whole wheat flour, crispy and cheesy just like the store-bought one's.


This is a kid-approved recipe because my daughter eats them with a lot of excitement as soon as they are cooled down after baking. It is so easy that my daughter herself loves to make them under my guidance. So without wasting time, let's dig in the recipe...

Makes 40 - 50 small square sized crackers.
Total time: 1 hour 7 minutes.

INGREDIENTS:
Whole wheat flour 2 cups
Salt 1/2 tsp
Ground black pepper as per taste (optional)
Grated Organic Parmesan Cheese 1 cup
Unsalted Organic butter (cold)  8 tbsp
Whole organic grass-fed milk 1/2 cup
Dried herbs (optional)

INSTRUCTION:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place parchment paper over steel plate /baking trays.

2. In a big bowl, mix whole wheat flour, salt, pepper, dried herbs(optional), and Parmesan cheese.


3. Now add the cold butter, working it in with hands until no large piece remains.


4. Now Gradually pour in the milk and keep kneading until the dough comes together, you may not use the entire 1/2 cup...depends on the wheat flour.


5. Gather the dough into a ball, squeeze it a few times. Divide it into 3 pieces. Take one piece on a parchment paper, flatten it.

6. Place one more parchment paper on top and roll it into a thin square/round with a rolling pin.

7. Cut the dough into 1" squares using a sharp knife/pizza cutter. Now remove the edges that are not perfect shapes.


8. Transfer them on to the baking sheet/parchment paper-lined steel plates. Continue the same steps with other two dough portions...place them on the tray.


9. Now bake the Crackers for about 8 to 10 minutes ...until medium brown. just keep an eye that they don't burn.

10. Once they are baked, remove from oven and cool them before tasting these yummy snacks. You can store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

I hope you will love this recipe...please comment to me and subscribe for such healthy homemade recipes.!!

Eggless Brazilian Cheese Bread

Pao de Queijo (pronounced as pown -deh- kay-zho) aka Brazilian Cheese Bread is a small baked cheese bun, a popular snack and breakfast food that originated in the state Minas Gerais of Brazil. These are bread/buns usually made with tapioca flour, milk, oil, cheese, salt, and egg/egg substitute. Since I don't use eggs in my baking I have used vinegar instead. These are soft, chewy and so addictive. I love to make healthy bakes from all around the world. Inspired by this YouTube video by Something Dave and I gave it a try as it was an eggless version.These came out so well. These are super simple and easy to make with just five ingredients. A must try because they are gluten-free, contain no yeast, no baking powder, yet so soft and cheesy😋 I had never tried baking with tapioca flour...and found it so interesting to bake with. The dough is too sticky and you will need some extra flour to be dusted to make balls out of it. I have used plant-based pa...

Huli pudi (Sambar Powder) North Karnataka style

Huli Pudi is one of the authentic traditional Sambar powders which has been passed on from generation to generation. This is specially made in North Karnataka. There is a wide variety of sambar powders not only within Karnataka but within South India. Each region has it's own way of adding ingredients and making them. In North Karnataka brahmin families, you can usually see two types of Sambars, firstly 'Saaru ' which can also be called Rasam with Toor dal. The consistency is thin and usually made with Tur dal and tomatoes or Tamarind. The other one is 'Huli' which is thicker in consistency and usually includes some veggies or greens. So here I am sharing the Sambar powder that is used to make a typical Huli. This is so unique and different from South Karnataka Sambar powders. The main difference being the omission of urad dal and Tur dal. This powder is just made with dried spices. This can be made in advance in large quantities/batches and stored in a...
