Butter CrackersLara Ferroni

A touch of sugar makes these flakey crackers equally as tasty with peanut butter as they are with cheese. Look for a fluted edge cookie cutter to make your crackers look like the classic Ritz crackers.

Cooks' Note

For gluten-free Butter Crackers, replace the white spelt and white whole-wheat flours with an equal amount of gluten-free all-purpose baking mix. Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment for easier rolling.

For vegan Butter Crackers, replace the butter with an equal amount of vegan margarine or coconut oil and the egg wash with soy milk.
