📝 Preparation Steps
1
Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350˚F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
Pulse the flour, baking powder, chile powder, garlic powder, mustard powder, salt, and pepper in a food processor until combined. Pulse in the butter until coarse crumbs form. Add the cheese and pimentos and process until well distributed, about ⏱️ 10 seconds. Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Pulse in the water until a dough forms.
3
Using a tablespoon-size measuring spoon, scoop the dough into balls and place on the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
4
Bake until almost set and puffed, about ⏱️ 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and press the back of a teaspoon-size measuring spoon into each cracker to form a thumbprint-size indent. Return to the oven and continue baking until golden brown and set, 8 to 10 more minutes. Transfer the crackers to a rack and let cool completely, about ⏱️ 15 minutes.
5
Just before serving, spoon or pipe about ½ teaspoon jelly into the indent of each cracker.
