Homemade crackers seem like one of those things that take so much effort to make, especially that picking up a box of perfectly decent crackers at the grocery store is so easy. In reality, crackers are one of the easiest homemade recipes and they are so tasty when freshly baked. It only takes about 45 minutes to prepare the dough, cut it, and bake it.
