Cheddar Crackers

01Method

1. 1

   Cut the butter into small pieces. In a bowl, combine the flour and baking powder, add the butter, and use a stand mixer to work the mixture into a rough, crumbly dough.

2. 2

   Mix in the shredded cheddar, salt, and pepper on low speed until the dough just starts to come together. Gradually add 3 tablespoons of water and mix until the dough is smooth.

3. 3

   Scoop out level tablespoons of dough, shape into rounds, and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten each cracker with the bottom of a glass and press a pecan half or almond into the center. Bake in an oven preheated to 200 °C for about 12 minutes, until the crackers are golden brown.
