Homemade Crackers with Cheese and Olives Recipe

You will need:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour

• 1/2 cup grated cheese

• 5-6 large olives chopped

• 1 tsp sugar

• 1 tsp salt

• 3-4 tbsp water

• 5 tsp olive oil

How to:

1. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4

2. Mix all ingredients in a bowl

3. Roll the dough to 1/2 cm thickness

4. Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into squares

5. Place the squares on a tray lined with baking parchment

6. Bake for 8-12 min, until golden

7. Transfer to a cooling rack and let the cheesy crackers cool down for a few minutes.

8. Enjoy!

• I like the crackers to be quite flaky, so I roll the dough a few times, fold it and roll it again. I do this three times, and if you have the time and patience, you can repeat the process a few extra times.

• Feel free to use your preferred Cheddar/Gouda/Edam/Provolone/Fontina or anything similar.

• You can use green olives, black olives, or, as I usually do, a mix of both.

• Ideally, try to use virgin olive oil, but if if you don't happen to have that, sunflower or rapeseed oil will do the job.

• Once they cool down completely, they can be kept in an air-tight container at room temperature, for about a week.

• You can enjoy them as they are, or pair them with your favourite cream soups, dips or charcuterie boards.
