Parmesan & seeds whole wheat Crackers

I love crackers, they are crispy and smell really good, because of the butter... but I like to have more seeds on the top, I better make mine so that I can put whatever I want on the top :)

This recipe is a good one, the crackers are crunchy and the smell of parmesan is very nice!

You can serve it as snacks or aperitif !!




Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground pepper
1 cup shredded parmesan cheese

120g cold unsalted butter
1/2 cup cream OR half and half*

Optional:
Sea salt
Sunflower seeds
Any seeds you like

*Cream 30% fat
Half & half = half portion of whole milk + half portion of cream 30% fat

Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 230°C
Line 2 baking sheets on 2 trays, set aside

2. In a mixing bowl, mix flour, sugar, salt, pepper & cheese
Add in cold butter, beat well until the butter blends in the mixture
Add in cream, beat until all ingredients blend well

3. Separate 2 dough into 2 portions

4. Roll one portion out into thin layer about 1/8"

Sprinkle sea salt & seeds on the top
Roll the dough again so salt & seeds well attach on the dough

5. Use a pizza cutter or a knife to divide the dough into small portions (pre-cut)
You can also use a fork to pinch holes on the dough, but I found that is not a must

6. Put the dough in the oven and let it bake for 8-10mins or when the edge becomes golden color

7. Repeat step 4 - 6 for 2nd portion of dough

8. When the crackers are ready, take them out
Leave the crackers on a cooling rack until it's completely cool, then you can transfer them to a zip-log bag 
OR you can taste them immediately :)

Enjoy!
