Sourdough Discard Cheez-Its

2/16 Edited to

... Read moreUsing sourdough discard in snacks like these Cheez-Its is a fantastic way to reduce waste while enjoying the unique tangy flavor sourdough brings. I’ve found that combining one cup of sourdough discard with an equal amount of shredded cheese and a touch of garlic powder yields the perfect base for these crackers. Spreading the mixture thinly on parchment is key to getting them nice and crispy. After baking for 10 minutes at 350°F, scoring the dough before continuing to bake helps create perfectly portioned crackers that are easy to break apart. Keep an eye on the edges as they tend to bake faster; removing them early prevents burning while the center continues crisping. I love storing these Cheez-Its in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crunchy for days. They make a great snack on the go or even a savory addition to cheese boards. For anyone new to sourdough, this recipe is an approachable way to start using discard without complicated steps or long fermentation times. Plus, it highlights how versatile sourdough discard can be beyond just bread, turning into delicious snacks you’ll actually look forward to eating. Give them a try and see how rewarding saving your discard can be!
