This easy Cheddar Cheese Crackers recipe uses just 5 ingredients for a crisp, cheesy snack that’s perfect for lunchboxes, parties, or everyday snacking. Better than store-bought and ready in under an hour!

Ingredients

8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, finely grated
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
4 tbsp cold butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine cheese, flour, butter, and salt.
  2. Pulse until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
  3. Add sour cream and pulse again until the dough starts to come together.
  4. It should still be crumbly but hold when pressed.
  5. Shape the dough into a log, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat oven to 350° .
  7. Roll dough on lightly floured parchment to about ⅛–¼ inch thick. If you prefer them to be crunchy, roll them thinner, and if you prefer them chewy, like biscuit bites, roll them out thicker.
  8. Cut into 1-inch squares using a pizza cutter or pastry wheel.
  9. Poke a hole in each cracker with a skewer or chopstick.
  10. Transfer parchment and crackers to a baking sheet.
  11. Slightly separate the crackers.
  12. Bake for 17–20 minutes, until golden and puffy.
  13. Cool completely and enjoy!
