Gluten Free Crackers Recipe

This recipe makes 80 gluten free crackers. Prep time: 10 minutes.  Cook time: 15 minutes.  Additional time: 10 minutes.   Total time: 35 minutes.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup gluten free all purpose flour blend

1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika - optional (adds color)

1/4 teaspoon onion powder - optional (leave out for low fodmap)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder - optional (leave out for low fodmap)

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon sugar

1/4 cup butter, chilled and cut into small cups (dairy free for vegan option)

1/4 cup water

INSTRUCTIONS:
1- Whisk together all of the ingredients except for the butter and water together in a medium sized mixing bowl.

2- Cut into the cubed butter to the flour blend with a fork or pastry utter and cut into a sandy mixture. Add the water and mix until a soft dough forms. With your hands form into a round disc. Place back in the bowl, cover and place in the fridge for ten minutes to let the butter chill.

3- Preheat oven to 400℉/205℃. Line one large baking tray or two smaller trays with baking paper.

4- Lay out a large sheet of parchment paper. Place the dough on top of the paper and then place another sheet of parchment paper over the top so that the dough is sat between two pieces of baking paper. Roll out the dough between the paper until it's ⅛ inch thick.

5- Peel back the top piece of paper and cut the dough into 1 inch squares using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.

6- Transfer dough to the prepared baking sheets. Leave a little bit of space between each square. Place in the middle of the oven and bake crackers for 14-16 minutes until cooked. Let cool at least 5 minutes before moving from the tray and enjoy!

NOTES

1- for crispier crackers, roll out the dough even thinner and reduce the cook time by 1-2 minutes.

2- Any generic all purpose gluten free flour blend will work for these crackers.
