Homemade Crispy Cream Crackers

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour — 250g

• ¼ cup butter — 55g

• 2 tablespoons sugar — 25g

• 1 teaspoon baking powder — 4g

• ½ teaspoon salt — 3g

• ½ cup water — 120ml, approximately

• 1 tablespoon milk powder — 8g (optional, for a richer taste)

Method

Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and milk powder in a bowl.

Add the butter and rub it into the flour until the mixture looks crumbly.

Gradually add the water, mixing until a smooth, firm dough forms. Avoid adding too much water.

Knead the dough gently until smooth, then cover and allow it to rest for about 15–20 minutes.

Roll the dough out very thinly on a lightly floured surface.

Cut into neat squares or rectangles and prick each cracker several times with a fork.

Arrange on a lined baking tray, leaving a little space between them.

Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (340°F) for about 15–20 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp.

Allow the crackers to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.

Tip: For extra crispy crackers, roll the dough as thin as possible and let them bake until evenly golden.
