Ingredients

• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Nutritional yeast
• 3 tablespoons Vegan butter or coconut oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Cold water
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, nutritional yeast, baking powder, turmeric, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and salt.

Step 3

Add the vegan butter or coconut oil to the dry ingredients and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Slowly add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about 1/8-inch thickness.

Step 6

Using a small cookie cutter (such as a fish or square shape), cut out your crackers and place them on the prepared baking tray. Re-roll any scraps of dough and repeat.

Step 7

If using sesame seeds, sprinkle them on top of the crackers and gently press to adhere.

Step 8

Bake the crackers in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.

Step 9

Allow the crackers to cool completely on a wire rack. They will crisp up further as they cool.

Step 10

Store the crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
