Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup almond flour
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar cheese * See notes)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-2 tablespoon water (** See notes)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a high speed blender or food processor, add your almond flour, shredded cheese, and salt, and blend well, until a dough remains. If the dough is too crumbly, add a tablespoon or two of water.
  • Line a large sheet of parchment paper on a flat kitchen surface. Transfer the dough onto it and place another sheet of parchment paper on top. Press down on the dough, before rolling it out using a rolling pin, until around 1/4 inch in thickness. Using a pizza cutter, slice up squares to form crackers.
  • Transfer the crackers onto the lined sheet. Bake for 12 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.

HOMEMADE WHEAT THINS RECIPE



Homemade Wheat Thins Recipe image

his isn't a recipe for any old cracker, it's a recipe for crisp and thin whole grain crackers that taste exactly like the kind you buy at the store. My recipe hinges on using the same ingredients you find written right on the box: whole grains, oil, sugar, malt syrup, and turmeric. If you don't have any affection for genuine Wheat Thins, you can get away with a substitution or two, but for those of you who want to make a worthy copy at home, it's vital to use the right ingredients. Trust me, it's worth the effort.

Time 1h15m

Yield 140

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the Glaze:
2 ounces light corn syrup (about 3 tablespoons; 55g)
1/4 ounce barley malt syrup (about 1 1/2 teaspoons; 7g)
1/4 teaspoon (1g) Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight
1 ounce hot water (about 2 tablespoons; 30g)
For the Crackers:
5 ounces whole wheat flour, plus more for dusting (about 1 cup, spooned ; 140g)
2 1/2 ounces sugar (about 1/3 cup; 70g)
1 1/2 ounces bread flour (about 1/4 cup, spooned; 40g)
3/4 ounce toasted wheat germ (about 3 tablespoons; 20g)
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon (2g) Diamond Crystal kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 ounce refined coconut oil, solid but creamy (about 2 tablespoons; 30g)
1/4 ounce barley malt syrup (1 1/2 teaspoons; 7g)
3 ounces water (about 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon; 85g)

Steps:

  • For the Glaze: Combine corn syrup, malted barley syrup, and salt in a small bowl, then add hot water and stir with a fork until the salt is dissolved. Set aside to cool.
  • For the Crackers: Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position, preheat to 350°F, and cut two parchment sheets to 11- by 16-inches. Combine whole wheat flour, sugar, bread flour, wheat germ, salt, turmeric, cream of tartar, baking soda, and coconut oil in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until coconut oil disappears into a fine, powdery meal. Mix barley malt and water in a small glass to dissolve the syrup, then add to dry mix and process to form a stiff dough. Knead lightly on an unfloured surface, then divide in half and drape with a damp paper towel.
  • To Roll: Place a prepared parchment sheet on a clean work surface, and dust generously with whole wheat flour. Place one portion of dough in the center, sprinkle with flour, and, using a rolling pin, roll into a roughly 5- by 8-inch rectangle. Dust with flour and carefully flip the dough over, sprinkling more flour on top, wherever you notice a sticky patch. Continue rolling from the center out, until the dough extends just past the edges of the parchment and is no thicker than 1/16 inch; the crackers will puff significantly in the oven, so this thinness is key to keeping them thin and crisp.
  • To Glaze and Cut: Trim away the ragged edges with a pizza wheel, and lightly brush the dough with glaze. If you like, use a docking tool to decorate the crackers. Cut into 1 1/2-inch squares with a pizza wheel (they will shrink in the oven), then carefully transfer the parchment and crackers to an aluminum half sheet pan. This can be done by lifting two opposite corners and pulling the paper taut, or by sliding the parchment and crackers on and off a pizza peel.
  • To Bake: Sprinkle with salt and bake the crackers to a light yellow-brown, about 12 minutes, rotating the sheet pan halfway through to ensure even browning in the ultra-thin dough. The bake-time is highly variable , depending on the exact thickness of the dough, the type of baking sheet used, and any variations in dough thickness. Keep a close eye on the crackers as they bake, as they may brown and crisp faster depending on these variables. Cool to room temperature directly on the baking sheet; the crackers will not be crisp while warm. Repeat with the remaining dough (if rolled/cut in advance, the crackers won't shrink away from each other as they should). Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature up to one month.

LOW CARB ALMOND THIN CRACKERS

Provided by Mercy

Categories     Breads

Time 35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup almond flour
2 teaspoons Splenda granular
1 egg white
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon onion powder

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients well in a small bowl; everything should be moist and the dough should hold together somewhat.
  • Put the dough on a well-greased sheet of parchment paper or heavy-duty aluminum foil, about 15x18" (it's helpful to crumble the dough mixture and spread the crumbs in a roughly rectangular shape on the foil).
  • Cover the dough with a piece of wax paper that's been sprayed with non-stick spray.
  • Roll out the dough to about 1/8" thick or slightly thinner; try to get the dough to an even thickness; you can also carefully peel up the wax paper and reshape the dough to get it as close to rectangular as possible, about 9x9" square.
  • Replace the wax paper and continue rolling until nice and even.
  • Peel off the wax paper and use a pizza or ravioli cutter to score the dough into approximately 48 1-inch squares.
  • Lift the foil and set it on the oven rack and bake them at 325º for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Check after 10 minutes and if crackers at outer edge are getting pretty brown, remove those and continue baking the rest until golden; use a thin metal spatula to very gently pry the crackers from the foil.
  • Break them apart on the score lines and let cool.

Tips:

  • Use almond flour for a low-carb and gluten-free option. Almond flour is a great substitute for wheat flour in these crackers. It is low in carbs and gluten-free, making it a good choice for those with dietary restrictions.
  • Add your favorite seasonings. These crackers are a blank canvas for flavor. Feel free to add your favorite seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the crackers tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
  • Roll the dough out thinly. The thinner you roll the dough, the crispier the crackers will be.
  • Bake the crackers until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are crispy and flavorful.

Conclusion:

These low-carb wheat thins are a delicious and healthy snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own dietary needs. So next time you are looking for a healthy snack, give these low-carb wheat thins a try!
