Who doesn't love a good ol' classic that's made from scratch? These homemade Saltines From Scratch are exactly that! Who doesn't know and love this classic crispy, light soda crackers? So versatile, but also so surprisingly easy to make, but also so incredibly satisfying knowing that you made one of your favorite crackers from scratch!

Recipe Video

Ingredients Needed

cake flour, sugar, oil, baking soda, butter, salt on a counter.
  • Semonlina or Cake Flour - The most important part of getting the right texture for these classic soda crackers is to start with a flour of the right texture. All purpose flour isn't going to cut it, you need a flour that's ground extra fine like a cake flour or a fine semolina flour.
  • Butter - Key not only for the texture of the cracker dough, but also to add the right flavor.
  • Vegetable oil - Also key to getting the right texture of the dough.
  • Instant yeast, Baking Soda, and Cream of Tatar - Your leavening agents which create the right amount of air within the crackers to create the signature texture.
  • Sugar - Just a touch for flavor.
  • Salt - For the dough and to finish with.

Pretty simple, right?

How to Make Saltines From Scratch

While of course it takes more time and effort to make homemade crackers the payoff is huge! Plus, they can be made in some pretty manageable steps.

  1. Make the dough
  2. Let it chill
  3. Roll out
  4. Bake!

Make the dough

This requires melting butter in with water and oil, mixing the dry ingredients, and then mixing them all together. You can do this with a hand mixer or a wooden spoon.

Chill the dough

By chilling the dough, it will make it much easier to work with and roll out. I usually like to prep the dough the night before I plan to make them so that the dough is ready to go the next day.

Roll out dough

This is key to getting the thin crispy crackers you know and love! You can of course use your favorite rolling pin to achieve this, but you can also use a pasta roller to get your dough really really thin.  The thinner the cracker, the better, for sure.  

Just like with homemade pasta, start thick and work your way thin, slowly as to not tear the dough.  Then, back onto your floured surface and I even gave it another roll with the pin before cutting them with the pasta wheel cutter.


Then just some pricks with a fork and onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and a brush with a touch of water and a sprinkle of sea salt.  They can be right up next to each other on the sheet, they won't expand at all. They'll actually shrink a little. 

Tip: If you're able to roll the dough out very thin, you can also roll the dough right out on the parchment paper and cut the crackers right on the paper. Similar to how we make our Everything Bagel Rye Crackers.

Bake!

Baked at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes (be sure to check them, they'll brown quickly!), and you have your very own homemade Saltines From Scratch soda crackers! 

When I tried the first one, I'm not going to lie, I did a little dance then texted my husband, "OMG I made Saltines that taste like Saltines!"  Even with the added effort, we will definitely be adding these guys to our regular rotation of crackers.  I wanted to have them with some homemade soup, but they definitely didn't last long enough.  Oh well, just an excuse to make more!

Perfect with a big bowl of soup or as the base for your favorite dip or other appetizers. These homemade soda crackers will add some from scratch flair to any dish you use them in or serve them with!

Equipment

  • Dough cutter

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups cake flour
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons softened butter
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tatar
  • 1/2- 1 teaspoon Sea Salt or Herb Salts for topping

Instructions

  • Add flour, yeast, baking soda, cream of tatar, and sugar to a medium sized bowl. Whisk together.
  • In a small sauce pan, add butter, oil and water and heat gently until butter is melted. Let cool to 120 degrees, or where it's still hot, but doesn't burn to the touch.
  • Make a well in the whisked together dry ingredients and then pour in the butter. With an electric mixer, beat well on medium then on high until all the butter is incorporated and a dough begins to form.
  • With your hands, knead together the dough into a ball. If the dough is too sticky, add a touch more flour at a time. If it's too dry, add a tiny bit of water at a time. It should be a nice soft ball of dough.
  • Lightly grease the bowl and cover it with plastic wrap and let rest in fridge for at least 12 hours and up to 18 hours.
  • When you're ready to use, take the bowl out of the fridge and let the dough come up to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
  • Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees and line large baking sheets with parchment paper, or grease them.
  • Remove dough from bowl and knead it for a couple of minutes until it is smooth and clay like.
  • Divide it into 4 pieces and roll each piece out at a time. Use a pasta roller to get the dough as thin as possible - this will make for a much better, crunchy cracker.
  • With a rolling pizza wheel or pasta cutter, cut out 2X2 squares. Transfer squares to the baking sheets. The squares can be right next to each other, squeeze as many as you can in, they will actually shrink in size as they bake. Do this with all of the remaining dough.
  • With a fork, prick each cracker to get the classic "Saltines" perforations. Brush each cracker with a little bit of water and then sprinkle with salt / herb salt.
  • Bake for 8 - 10 minutes, checking at 8 to ensure they're don't brown too much (unless you like a super crispy cracker like my husband does!)
  • Remove from oven and let cool on tray.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to a week - if you can hold back from eating them all that long!

    I have been making these for a couple months and we love them. I use Dash on the tops and use my rolling pin to gently press it into the dough before pricking and cutting. I also roll the dough out on parchment paper. So easy to handle then.

    only problem with this recipe is that within 24 hrs from coming out of the oven they seem to vanish. I substituted butter flavored Crisco for the butter and made by own cake flour by removing 3 tablespoons of all purpose flour and replacing with 3 tablespoons of cornstarch. Turned out great.

      Hi Miranda, I have not tried it with gluten free all purpose flour. I would suggest for a gluten free option to try gluten free cake flour, first because that flour will have a similar consistency to the flour use for this recipe.

    I made this recipe the other day, they smell like saltine crackers but the taste and texture is different, I used A.P flour but other than that no change of ingredients, I learned from school that baking is an exact science so I think there is something amiss with the ingredients

      Hi! Although it may not seem like there's much of a difference, there is between AP flour and cake flour. Using AP Flour is what made your texture off. If you can get it, cake flour will give you more of that classic saltine texture 🙂

      I don’t have a pasta roll machine. But would definitely like to try this anyway. What are the issues with hand rolling these out? I’m guessing I’ll need a floured surface, or should I use an oiled surface? Hmmm...

        Hi Kathleen! You can definitely roll by hand on a floured surface. The only issue is making sure that they're nice and thin - the thinner the cracker the crispier it'll be!

    These actually taste just like saltine crackers! I'm super impressed! I had to substitute cornstarch for some of the flour as I only had AP, not cake flour. I also found that #7 on my pasta roller (the thinnest) was too thin, so I did #6. I only cooked them about 4-5 minutes, but my oven is a bit hot. I wondered some of the same things as Jeff above when I read the recipe, but they taste like the real thing, so who cares! Next time I'll try a herb & garlic or something. Do you think water would still work for adding the seasoning on top or should I use olive oil?

        A note here: According to the Joy of Cooking, you can make an approximation of cake flour by substituting 1 cup sifted minus 2 Tb. flour for 1 cup all-purpose. I have also heard you can substitute cornstarch for some of the AP flour, but I'm unsure of the proportions or ratio. Cake flour has the least gluten, AP has a middling quantity, and bread flour has the most. You mention semolina (note correct spelling) in the opening comments but you don't use it in the recipe. Was it omitted or what? Last, I haven't made this recipe; I was looking for a good cracker recipe online and haven't found one yet. But I'm a bit put off by all the leavening ingredients—why so many? I wanted a plain cracker for cheese, not a cheese-flavored cracker, so yours seem like good candidates, but I'm puzzled. And BTW, I was a cookbook copy editor and proofreader for about 40 years, for New York publishers. These are the kinds of questions I would have asked a cookbook author. I only checked one star because it would not be fair for me to rate the recipe without trying it. Other cracker recipes I found used the very least amount of leavening—like 1/4 tsp. baking powder per 1 1/2 cups flour. Just as a for instance.

          Hi Saralyn,

          Thanks so much for all of those notes- all great and I’m sure that you’ve seen a lot and have a lot of great knowledge as a cookbook editor. However, I would like to point out that your logic about not leaving a review because you didn’t try it (I totally agree with), but by leaving ONE star, that IS reviewing it, isn’t it? It’s leaving a very poor one star review for a recipe that you didn’t try.

    Was scratching my head while making these. Have to say I did not like the results and, in retrospect, it should have been no surprise. Aside from spelling Cream of Tarter as Tater several times there are more obvious baking errors. Why is there yeast? And if there is, what good is it going to do sitting in a fridge overnight-- especially in low gluten cake flour?!? The leavening agent could be the Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) but it needs to have water and an acid to activate it -- unlike baking powder which includes an acid. No acid in the recipe. So yeah-- retarded yeast in low protein flour, with unactivated baking soda is gonna result is a flat biscuit like cake with minimal crispiness.

        Imagine being so rude when you don’t even know what you are talking about. People like you who think they are experts when in reality they have no idea what they are talking about (and unnecessarily rude while doing so) are the the problem in the world. As someone else said, cream of tartar is an acid. Yeast is still active in the refrigerator, especially if youre leaving it in for 12-18 hours. When I make sourdough, I let it rise in the fridge overnight. True, you won’t get a huge rise with cake flour, but it will still contribute to small bubbles in the dough that will expand and contribute to a crunchy and flaky texture as they are baked. A high protein flour would lead to tougher crackers that don’t have the same snap that would be expected from saltines. Also who cares about typos if you can still understand the recipe. Thanks for the recipe Tracy, can’t wait to try it.

      Not sure if my previous comment was published. Imagine being this rude when you have no idea what you are talking about? People like you who have no idea what they are talking about and talk down to others even when they are wrong is a huge reason the world sucks. As previously discussed, cream of tartar is an acid. Yeast is still active in the refrigerator. When I make sourdough, I leave it in the fridge overnight to rise. True, you won't get a huge rise with cake flour, but the yeast will still contribute to small bubbles in the dough that will expand and help provide a flaky and crisp texture as they are baked. Using a flour with higher protein would make the crackers chewy and not at all like saltines. Looking forward to trying this recipe, thank you Tracy. Apologies on behalf of Jeff.

      Hi! Yes - you can substitute every 1/2 teaspoon of cream of tartar in the recipe for 1 teaspoon lemon juice or white vinegar for some recipes. I haven't tried it in THIS recipe though. The main purpose in it for this recipe is to give the cracker a little rise. I'd try it without it before subbing lemon juice and vinegar though.

    If you were to find the Italian flour, would you just use the same amount as your recipe calls for of the cake flour? Or might you recommend a combination of both; and if that be the case, what would the amounts for both be?

    These look great for dipping! I might have a go at these for our New Years Eve party.

    Love the idea of making crackers from scratch and it's great that it is all store cupboard ingredients too!

    I've never made homemade crackers. This is so cool. I love Saltines with a warm bowl of soup this time of year.

    These are really good. They have a sourdough taste, probably from some fermentation happening while it sits in the fridge. However, my dough was way to soft to use the pasta roller even after kneading in more flour. I ended up using the rolling pin and switched over to all purpose flour to dust. Both my husband and I were impressed with these. My first successful cracker after numerous utter failures.

      That's great to hear, Cathy! Sorry the pasta roller didn't work but sounds like you guys made it work. Hooray for homemade crackers!!

    If you don't have a pasta roller, could a rolling pin be used?

    What kind of yeast did you use? Active dry used for breads? Or is it nutritional yeast?

      This recipe calls for quick rise dry yeast. Nutritional yeast will give you a cheesy flavor 🙂

    Hi, I am a cooking student in Venezuela at the Caracas Culinary Institute. I have only one doubt about the recipe. In the ingredients there are 2 tblsp of oil. You dont mention in the instructions were they go, if its in the dough or are they for greasing the bowl ?
    Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

      Hi Jorge! Thanks so much for visiting and for pointing out my typo! The oil is melted with the butter and water. Thanks again for stopping by!

    These crackers look perfect, and I can think of so many ways to flavor them too.

      You're so right, Julie! You can totally jazz them up with different flavors and even different shapes for kids!

          Why are there so many 5 star ratings from people who admitted they had NOT tried the recipe? Only said that it looked 'fun'. Are they your friends?

            No, the comments with ratings are not my friends and if you feel those do not answer any of your questions about the recipe, there are other (rated and unrated) comments. Do you have a particular question about the recipe?
