Satisfy your snack cravings with these irresistible Gluten and Casein Free Cheesy Crackers—perfectly crisp, savory, and loaded with cheesy flavor without any actual cheese! Made with gluten-free all-purpose flour, nutritional yeast for that signature "cheesy" tang, and a boost of wholesome ground flaxseed, these crackers are delightfully nutritious and allergen-friendly. With minimal prep time and a short bake in the oven, they’re an easy, homemade alternative to store-bought snacks. Flavored with garlic and onion powders for an extra punch, they’re ideal for serving alongside dips, soups, or enjoying straight from the jar. Perfect for gluten-free, dairy-free snack lovers!
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, nutritional yeast, ground flaxseed, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the olive oil to the dry mixture and stir until the mixture resembles a crumbly dough.
Gradually add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing after each addition until a cohesive dough forms. The dough should hold together but not be too sticky.
Place the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper and flatten it slightly with your hands. Cover with another sheet of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to roll the dough out into a thin, even layer (about 1/8 inch thick).
Remove the top parchment paper and use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the dough into small cracker-sized squares. Transfer the parchment paper with the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the crackers are golden brown.
Allow the crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking them apart. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
