A while back I was watching an episode of The Pioneer Woman on Food Network where PW was making a care package for her daughter which included homemade cheddar crackers. I knew the moment I watched the episode that Nolan would love them! I just made a few adjustments to the ingredients to make it a bit more baby friendly and they turned out wonderfully. He and I ate the entire batch of crackers before the end of the day.
I can't tell you who like them more....Nolan or me!
The best part is that the crackers couldn't be an easier to make. Just combine all the ingredients (except the water) in the food processor....
Pulse it a few times until it resembles coarse sand....
Now add the water to the bowl of the food processor and continue to pulse until it forms into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4-inch thickness. Then using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into little squares.
Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees (F) until puffed and golden brown. Wait until they have cooled completely before storing in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Enjoy!
