Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 3 tablespoons Whole milk (plus more for brushing)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 3

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the whole milk and vanilla extract. Gradually pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until the dough starts to come together.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and knead it gently until it forms a smooth ball.

Step 6

Roll the dough out evenly to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to slice the dough into small squares or rectangles.

Step 7

Place the cut crackers onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and sugar for topping. Lightly brush the tops of the crackers with a little milk, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over them.

Step 9

Using a fork, prick each cracker a few times to prevent puffing during baking.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 11

Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
