Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
• 3 tablespoons non-fat Greek yogurt
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. If using, add the cayenne pepper for a bit of spice.

Step 3

Add the grated reduced-fat cheddar cheese to the dry ingredients and mix well until the cheese is evenly coated with the flour mixture.

Step 4

Add the non-fat Greek yogurt to the mixture. Using your hands or a fork, knead the mixture until it forms a cohesive dough. If the dough seems too dry, add an extra teaspoon of yogurt at a time until it just comes together.

Step 5

Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Use a sharp knife or a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 1-inch squares.

Step 6

Transfer the cut squares onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1/2 inch apart.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden brown. Keep an eye on them as they can overbake quickly.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool before serving. Enjoy your homemade low-fat cheese crackers with dips or on their own!
