Bowl of baked crackers

Homemade Sourdough Starter Crackers

  • 2-4 People

  • Time: 1 Hour

  • Difficulty: Hard

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unfed sourdough starter

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 TBS Mac Daddy Cheese Sauce Mix
  • 4 TBS salted butter
  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon U Wanna Pizza Me?
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Crispy, Cheesy, and Packed with Pizza Flavor

These sourdough cheese crackers are the perfect way to turn extra starter into something seriously snackable—crispy, tangy, and loaded with flavor.

Finished with U Wanna Pizza Me, they bring that classic pizza-night vibe into every bite, making them just as good for snacking as they are for sharing (if they last that long).

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt butter in the microwave until fully melted.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sourdough starter, and melted butter. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
  4. Mix in 3 tablespoons of cheese seasoning (adjust to taste).
  5. Place half the dough onto parchment paper and cover with a second sheet. Roll out thin and evenly.
  6. Remove the top parchment layer. Brush the dough with a beaten egg.
  7. Sprinkle generously with U Wanna Pizza Me seasoning.
  8. Cut into cracker-sized pieces using a pizza cutter or knife.
  9. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 15–18 minutes, until crisp and golden.
  10. Let cool completely, then break apart and serve.

Pro Tip:

Roll the dough as thin as possible for the best crunch. Keep a close eye while baking—these go from perfect to overdone fast.

Make It Your Own:

  • Use more or less cheese mix depending on how bold you want it
  • Swap in Cow-Abunga for a non-cheese version
  • Add red pepper flakes for a little heat
  • Experiment with different sourdough discard levels for more tang

What To Serve It With:

Serve as a snack on their own or pair with dips, cheese boards, or soups. These are perfect for entertaining or everyday snacking.
