If I’m Italian, why the h*ll am I sharing healthy super bowl snack ideas? Well, because I love my American audience (you’re actually a pretty big % ) and I know that for you the Super Bowl is always an epic event. That’s why I made these vegan homemade crackers: because they’re just perfect to eat while watching the game and ideal to dip in any sauce and dipping and whatever you want.

Also, the Internet says that the Super Bowl is, after Thanksgiving Day, the second largest day for food consumption in the U.S.
Hence, here I am sharing my recipe with you (actually, this homemade crackers recipe is perfect all year round!)

Healthy super bowl snacks: crackers served onto a marble platter with cheese and avocado

The perfect Super Bowl platter: serve the crackers with hummus, vegan cheese and whatever you love most!

Homemade crackers are the perfect snack (for your kids too)

Mmm, can you already feel the flavor? Their crunchiness? Can you feel their spiciness? These vegan crackers are everything, believe me, they’re the perrrrfect snack [Actually, I still have some left, let me snack on them while I write the post!]

When I was young, the easiest snack that my mom used to give me and my sister was bread (it was a specific kind of bread, it was called cornetto) or crackers. So, besides being the ideal healthy Super Bowl snack, they’re an amazing idea for your kids as well (obviously avoid the chili pepper!).
If you give them to your kids, serve them with hummus, avocado dip or nut butter for a sweet version (check my raw vegan Nutella here)

To enjoy them on Super Bowl day, assemble the platter using cheese or vegan cheese, cured meat (if you’re not vegan), all kind of dips/sauces, veggies/fruit, honey or other syrups or whatever you love most. Have fun!

How to make crackers at home (spoiler: it’s easy)

Let me tell you: there’s nothing easier than making your crackers at home. I promise it’s foolproof (not saying that you’re a fool obviously).

Now let’s see how to make crackers in 3 easy steps:

1. Combine dry, wet & let rest

Start by combining your dry ingredients (+ oil) into a bowl, then gradually – so you can adjust – add the water. The dough shouldn’t be too tacky or too dry (but in case, better to add flour later).

Serve your crackers with hummus: this one is capers’ and it’s delicious!

2. Brush with olive oil

This is what makes crispy and super flavorful crackers so please don’t skip this step. After rolling out the dough, cut them with a cookie cutter (or a small cup) and brush each cracker with some high quality extra virgin olive oil (mine is sent straight from Sicily). Lastly sprinkle them with salt flakes (or regular salt).

3. Bake!

I baked mine for 30 minutes because they were not extra thin, but if you manage to roll them out very thinly, keep a check on them because they might take 15/20 minutes.
Let them cool down and they’ll turn out even more crispy!

Do you want to know what’s the best thing about them? They last days if you store them in a plastic bag or an airtight container!
