Yeast Free Savory Chickpea Flour Crackers with Turmeric & Rosemary
Crackers are one of those snack-aisle staples that can be surprisingly tricky to navigate when you're avoiding yeast, since many commercial varieties sneak it in as a flavor enhancer or use yeast-derived ingredients you'd never expect. These golden, herb-flecked squares are built entirely on chickpea flour, which gives them a satisfying nuttiness and a sturdy snap without any leavening agents at all. Turmeric lends that gorgeous warm color and a subtle earthiness, while fresh rosemary and garlic powder make every bite smell and taste like something from a fancy charcuterie spread. The dough comes together with just olive oil and cold water, rolled thin and scored right on the pan so the whole process is genuinely low-fuss. A light brush of olive oil before baking pushes the edges into deep, crispy territory, and the optional flaky sea salt on top is the kind of finishing touch that makes people ask where you bought them. They crisp up even more as they cool, so resist the urge to eat them straight from the oven — though that will be a real test of willpower.
