Homemade cheese heart crackers are one of those magical little snacks that feel special but take almost no effort to pull together. With just four clean, wholesome ingredients—Jovial einkorn flour, butter, cheese, and whole‑milk Greek yogurt—you can make a batch of crisp, flavorful crackers your toddlers will love! They’re perfect for lunchboxes and after‑school snacks.
Ingredients in easy homemade crackers
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 4 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
- 1 cup Jovial einkorn flour (or any flour of choice)
- 4 tablespoons whole‑milk Greek yogurt
How to make Homemade Cheese Crackers
1. Blend the base ingredients
Add the shredded cheese, cubed butter, and einkorn flour to a food processor. Pulse a few times until the mixture looks lightly combined and crumbly.
2. Add the yogurt
Add the Greek yogurt and blend on low until the dough begins to form a grainy ball. When you pinch it between your fingers, it should hold together.
3. Roll and cut
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Roll it to your desired thickness, then cut into any shapes you like. Cookie cutters work beautifully — especially for making adorable heart‑shaped crackers.
4. Bake
Transfer the shapes to a baking sheet. Bake at 350°F for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
5. Cool and enjoy
Let the crackers cool completely so they crisp up. Store in an airtight container for easy toddler snacking throughout the week. You can also store these crackers in the freezer for up to 3 months!
One of the best parts is how customizable they are. The dough rolls out beautifully, making it easy to cut into any shapes you love. In our house, hearts are the favorite—they bake up adorable, golden, and just the right size for tiny fingers. Whether you use cookie cutters or simply cut them into squares, the result is always delicious.
