Guest recipe from my sister-in-law – Abby Ray. Abby had been working on some post-exercise snack recipes, and came up with these delicious crackers.
Crackers can be a great pre or post workout snack – combined with a protein packed dip or deli meat slices, you have a great combination of carbs, protein and healthy fats.
Recipe
Time: 1 hour
Makes about 60 small crackers
Ingredients
1 cup medium grained cornmeal
1 cup all purpose flour
¾ cup warm water
½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
4 Tbsp salted butter, room temperature
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp dried thyme
Directions
Add cornmeal, flour, water, Parmesan, butter, salt, and thyme into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until mixture is well combined, forming a slightly sticky dough ball.
Remove dough and place into a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Let rest for 30-60 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly dust work surface with all purpose flour.
Roll dough into a sheet ⅛ thick.
Cut dough into desired cracker shape. You can use a knife or pizza cutter for simple square shaped crackers or a fluted pastry cutter for a wavy edges. If sharing with the kids, use your choice of fun shaped cookie cutters.
Place the crackers on the prepared baking sheet so that they are close but not touching.
Bake for 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Let cool completely and enjoy.
