Tips for making cheese crackers
The key to these crackers' great flavor is starting with the traditional Master's Pimento Cheese Recipe. Whip up a double batch, one for the spread on your sandwiches and one for your crackers.
Add-ins
If you like your pimento cheese spicy then it's easy to kick up the heat. When adding the flour and salt to the pimento cheese mixture, add a 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
How to store the crackers
Once baked if there are any leftovers, I suggest placing the homemade crackers in an airtight container. Keep in a cool, dry cabinet for up to one week.
Can you freeze crackers?
- I suggest you make the cracker dough, roll it into a 1 1/2 inch diameter log.
- Then wrap the dough log with parchment paper tightly.
- Place in a gallon freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
- When you want to bake them allow the dough to thaw in the refrigerator over night.
- Slice the log into small round cracker size pieces.
- Bake
A pimento cheese crackers keto?
This recipe has all-purpose wheat flour so they are not keto. However, you can easily substitute wheat flour for almond flour. Just add a 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder with it.
Serving ideas
- Pimento cheese crackers would pair great on one of these Healthy Charcuterie Boards.
- Create a southern snack tray starting with the pimento cheese crackers, then add pickled okra, roasted pecans, Instant Pot Boiled Peanuts, Spicy Pimento Cheese Dip, veggie sticks, and Boiled Peanut Hummus.
- My favorite put the kids to bed, turn on a good movie, and sit down and relax with a bowl of these homemade crackers.
- Serve with an Augusta Azalea cocktail or a Transfusion cocktail.

Steps 6, 7 and 8 do not seem to make any sense.

Russell, You are totally right!! I had added extra steps that were not necessary. At first, I tried chilling the dough before rolling it out. After a second run of the recipe, I decided it was easier to work with the dough unchilled but forgot to remove that part of those steps. I have corrected it on my recipe card now. Thanks so much for pointing it out. I am going to email you a copy of my Augusta Famous Recipes ebook this afternoon for helping me correct this. Again, thank you.
