Cheese crackers with bread
Description
The recipe won't take much time. No oil is used when preparing the cracker dough, except for the fats contained in the added cheese. Using both yeast and baking powder in the recipe makes the cracker texture lighter and airier. Rye flour is included to enrich the baked goods with the benefits of whole-grain flour. However, if rye flour is unavailable, it can be replaced with wheat flour without affecting the quality of the final product. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
