Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl combine flour, cheese, basil, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, and salt; whisk until combined.
  • Using a fork, stir in the egg whites and egg yolk until completely combined and crumbly dough forms. IF the dough is too dry, add a teaspoon or two of cold water.
  • Using your hands, shape the dough into a ball.
  • Grab two sheets of parchment paper and grease with cooking spray.
  • Add the dough ball to one of the sheets; place the other parchment paper over the dough, oiled side down.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a large rectangle, about ⅛-inch thick. The thinner the dough, the crunchier the crackers will be.
  • Carefully slide the dough onto a baking sheet, do not remove the parchment paper.
  • Put in the freezer for 8 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 325˚F.
  • Remove dough from freezer and discard top sheet of parchment paper.
  • Sprinkle dough with everything bagel seasoning and, using your hands, press down on it to stick.
  • Using a pizza cutter, score the dough into about 36 crackers; you can cut them into rectangles or squares.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the crackers are golden and firm.
  • Remove from oven and cool completely on the baking sheet.
  • Break into crackers.
  • Serve.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 7 days.
