Vegan Buttery Bacon Crackers

Brittany Roche
Vegan bacon crackers made with coconut bacon and so buttery they almost melt in your mouth! They're a fun snack dipped into hummus or stews but also super flavorful and delicious all on their own.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2/3 cup vegan butter or REFINED coconut oil, cubed and chilled
  • 1/3 cup cold water
  • 2.5 Tbsp coconut bacon salt

Instructions
 

  • PREP: Preheat your oven to 375F, flip a large cookie sheet upside down, and line it with parchment paper. Then, if you haven't already, cube your vegan butter and place it in the freezer to chill.*
  • MAKE THE DOUGH: Whisk the flours, sea salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Cut in frozen vegan butter with a fork or pastry cutter until a rough, shaggy dough is formed. Add 1/3 cup cold water, stir, and then use your hands to bring the dough together in a ball. It may seem like it's too dry at first, but knead it for about 90 seconds before you add more water. If the dough still isn't coming together, add 1 Tbsp cold water at a time until it does.
  • Transfer the dough to your upside-down, parchment-lined baking sheet and use your hands to form the dough into a rectangle. Use your rolling pin to carefully roll the dough out until it is as thin as you can get it without breaking it. This part is super important, so it's worth it to take your time!
  • When the dough is completely rolled out, sprinkle the coconut bacon salt evenly on top and gently press it into the dough with your rolling pin or a spatula. From here, use a pizza cutter or knife to cut the dough into squares and place in your preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. Because the dough is so thin, be sure to check 'em every 5 minutes to make sure they don't burn.
  • Carefully remove your crackers from the oven and allow them to cool a bit before eating them. They will crisp up as they cool. Enjoy!

Notes

*We like to use the Earth Balance brand buttery sticks for this recipe because they're so easy to measure and cube, just like the dairy butter we grew up using! If vegan butter isn't your thing, you can totally sub refined coconut oil. Just be sure to let it harden and cube it as best you can (just like you would with the butter). Oh, and be sure to use REFINED coconut oil, otherwise you'll get coconut-flavored crackers.
