Spicy Chili Whole Grain Snack Crackers
For the third recipe from the Master Dough January Bread Braid, I made the Spicy Chili Whole Grain Crackers.
I don't think I've ever made crackers but one time in the past. Although they were good, they didn't bake quite as crispy as I would have liked. (the before crackers, not these....)
Some of the other bread braid participants made theirs earlier and reported that they could just cut them out on parchment and there was no real need to separate them. I followed their example and it made it much easier to make on the parchment and then transfer the whole thing in one fell swoop onto the baking sheet to cook.
These are topped with a chili powder and kosher salt blend after being brushed with olive oil. Yum...but think I could also top them with any other kind of spice and salt as well.
Too bad my husband thought the brown stuff was cinnamon sugar...he got a big surprise. Hum...guess you could do that though for people with a sweet tooth.
I think these are good all by themselves or with cheese.

I love the idea of cinnamon sugar on the crackers! If you can get the dough really thin it will bake up even crisper. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThank you for great idea! Zoë François
Ha! Loved the story about your husband and cinnamon! I agree that they would be good with any spice. Can't wait to see your other breads as the year goes along.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I had probs also with the crackers, but they are worth working on I think! Yours look better than my batch!
ReplyDeleteI was actually thinking that cinnamon and sugar would be great on these crackers. I didn't really like the chili powder. A little too spicy for my Midwestern tastebuds. Your crackers turned out beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThese look great! I didn't make the crackers, but made pretzels instead. I could see topping these crackers with just about any spice combination and finally skipping the Triscuit aisle at the grocery!
ReplyDeleteYour crackers look really good! I think cinnamon sugar would taste great on them. I didn't get to the crackers this time but I'm enjoying seeing everyone's posts. They look yummy!
ReplyDeleteI used all sorts of toppings for my crackers but never thought of a sweet topping. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteLOL....funny your husband thought it was cinnamon! but that is a great idea. your crackers look great!
ReplyDeleteYour crackers turned out great. I had a hard time rolling the crackers out real thin, but love the idea of the parchment. That's a great tip!
ReplyDeleteI need to put more spices on mine like you did. Thanks for the great picture.
ReplyDeleteWish I would have known about the parchment idea before I made mine! Great idea. I agree, any combination of spices would taste wonderful on these.
ReplyDeleteLoved looking at your artwork too :)
I sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar too and they were good!
ReplyDeleteKeep practing with your rolling pin! LOL!
great job! I wish I had thought to cut them on my baking sheet! [or read other people's comments!]
ReplyDeleteyour crackers turned out looking delicious! i had a lot of fun with this one.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteWow, your crackers look wonderful!!! I'll try it again, and I don't think I will separate them before baking either.
Were they hard to separate after baking!
Your crackers look wonderful - you had better luck than I did. Really liked your other breads also.
