Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup wheat germ
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon dry mustard
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ cup cold butter
6 tablespoons ice-cold water, or as needed

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Mix flour, wheat germ, sugar, ginger, mustard, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda together in a bowl.
Cut butter into the flour mixture with a pastry blender until the crumbles are the size of small peas. Slowly add water to dough and stir with a fork until the mixture comes together to form a ball.
Turn the dough ball onto a lightly floured surface and roll to about 1/4-inch thick; cut into small circles using a circular cookie cutter or a small, round glass. Put circles onto a baking sheet with 2 inches between.
Bake in the oven or until nicely browned, about 10 minutes.

EVERYTHING-SPICE PHYLLO CRACKERS

Everything-Spice Phyllo Crackers image

Here's a cracker that bakes up flaky and buttery, no matter how much of a baker you may or may not be. There's no need for a whisk, mixing bowl or even flour: Just layer phyllo sheets with butter, top with everything-bagel seasoning (or other spices, or grated cheese), and slice them into squares or triangles of any size. Each cracker promises a joyful, shattering mess; a companion to wine, beer or something stronger; and the pleasure of knowing it was so easy to make. Each batch yields a bounty of crackers, but this recipe is also easy to scale.

Time 30m

Yield About 40 to 60 crackers

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 sheets frozen phyllo pastry, thawed overnight and kept under a damp towel
1/4 cup/55 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick), melted
1/4 cup/40 grams everything-bagel seasoning (or make your own using 1 tablespoon dried minced onion, 1 tablespoon white sesame seeds, 2 tablespoons poppy seeds, 1 teaspoon fennel or caraway seeds and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place a piece of parchment paper the size of your baking sheet on a work surface.
Place a sheet of phyllo on the parchment paper and brush the pastry lightly with butter. Top with another sheet of phyllo, and lightly press down to eliminate any air bubbles trapped between the two sheets. Repeat with the next 2 layers of phyllo, then brush the top with the remaining butter. Trim the edges of phyllo, if necessary, to leave a 1/2-inch parchment border, and slide the parchment and pastry onto the baking sheet.
In a small bowl, combine the everything-bagel seasoning, pepper and flaky salt. Sprinkle evenly over the top of the phyllo, and press gently to adhere. Using your sharpest knife, cut the phyllo into 1 1/2-inch squares (or feel free to cut them into strips or triangles of varying sizes).
Bake until golden at the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet and serve at room temperature.

Tips:

Use a variety of spices: The more spices you use, the more complex and flavorful your crackers will be. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
Don't be afraid to experiment: There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to seasoning crackers. Feel free to adjust the amounts of spices you use to suit your own taste.
Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs can add a lot of flavor to crackers. If you have some on hand, be sure to add them to your recipe.
Use a variety of toppings: Once your crackers are baked, you can top them with a variety of things to add even more flavor. Some good options include cheese, meats, vegetables, and dips.

Conclusion:

Spice crackers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They can be made with a variety of spices and toppings, so you can customize them to your own taste. With a little creativity, you can create spice crackers that everyone will love.
