Best Glazed Crackers Recipes

GLAZED BACON-WRAPPED CRACKERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay the crackers face up on a clean work surface and scoop 1/2 teaspoon Parmesan on each. Wrap each cracker with a piece of the bacon so the seam side is on the bottom and the cracker and cheese are covered as much as possible. Place the crackers seam-side down on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Bake until the bacon is golden and crisp, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the jelly with 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl and microwave on high until warmed through and loose, about 30 seconds; add more water if necessary.
• When the crackers are done, brush each with the jelly, sprinkle with the cayenne if using and serve immediately.

PEANUT BUTTER CRACKERS WITH GLAZED GRAPES

Steps:

• Pulse both flours, the oats, brown sugar and fine salt in a food processor until combined. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like wet sand. Add the peanuts, peanut butter and milk and pulse until the mixture clumps together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, form into a ball and knead 4 or 5 times. Roll into a 12-inch-long log, about 1 inch in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Slice the dough into 1/4 -inch-thick rounds and arrange 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the baking sheets to racks and let the crackers cool.
• Meanwhile, make the glazed grapes: Cook the granulated sugar, wine and thyme in a small saucepan over medium heat until syrupy, 10 to 12 minutes. Discard the thyme and add the grapes and kosher salt; stir to coat and cook 1 more minute. Remove from the heat and let cool. Spread each cracker with cheese and top with a glazed grape. Season with pepper, if desired. Photograph by Kana Okada
