Ingredients
Scale
- 20–24 whole grain crackers
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (chopped)
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat: Set oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow to fully heat

- Season: Sprinkle fresh herbs and red pepper flakes over cheese
- Bake: Cook for 8-10 minutes until cheese bubbles and turns golden

Notes
- Choose crackers with similar thickness to ensure even cooking and consistent results
- Grate hard cheeses finely for faster melting, while soft cheeses can be spread directly
- Watch closely during the last few minutes to prevent burning – cheese can go from golden to burnt quickly
- Let crackers cool for 2-3 minutes before serving to avoid burns from hot cheese
