I have my own recipe for crackers and they are extremely healthy and good for you! I am not sensitive to gluten, but these crackers are gluten free, so they are safe if you have gluten sensitivities. The recipe is versatile, and you can make your crackers pretty much any flavor you desire. This batch, I made rosemary garlic crackers with black olives, but you can just take the basic dough recipe and add whatever you would like. Some different ideas could be:
- plain with just a bit of sea salt
- Cinnamon, honey, and stevia
- garlic parmesan
- garlic onion
- rosemary
- dill
- chopped cherry tomatoes with mozzarella cheese basil and oregano
- basil
- cheese of your choice
- thyme
- sour cream and chive
- vegetables finely chopped
- nuts and seeds
These are just a few ideas – you can really flavor them however you would like which makes this a fun recipe to make! You can even do different shapes if you would like! It’s also great that it’s really easy and quick to make. These make a great healthy snack, or you can combine them with your favorite soup or chili – YUM!
I’m going to give you the recipe I used, so it has rosemary, garlic, and black olives in it, but if you take those out, you have the basic dough recipe to play with.
