HOMEMADE WHEAT THINS RECIPE
his isn't a recipe for any old cracker, it's a recipe for crisp and thin whole grain crackers that taste exactly like the kind you buy at the store. My recipe hinges on using the same ingredients you find written right on the box: whole grains, oil, sugar, malt syrup, and turmeric. If you don't have any affection for genuine Wheat Thins, you can get away with a substitution or two, but for those of you who want to make a worthy copy at home, it's vital to use the right ingredients. Trust me, it's worth the effort.

Steps:
- For the Glaze: Combine corn syrup, malted barley syrup, and salt in a small bowl, then add hot water and stir with a fork until the salt is dissolved. Set aside to cool.
- For the Crackers: Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position, preheat to 350°F, and cut two parchment sheets to 11- by 16-inches. Combine whole wheat flour, sugar, bread flour, wheat germ, salt, turmeric, cream of tartar, baking soda, and coconut oil in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until coconut oil disappears into a fine, powdery meal. Mix barley malt and water in a small glass to dissolve the syrup, then add to dry mix and process to form a stiff dough. Knead lightly on an unfloured surface, then divide in half and drape with a damp paper towel.
- To Roll: Place a prepared parchment sheet on a clean work surface, and dust generously with whole wheat flour. Place one portion of dough in the center, sprinkle with flour, and, using a rolling pin, roll into a roughly 5- by 8-inch rectangle. Dust with flour and carefully flip the dough over, sprinkling more flour on top, wherever you notice a sticky patch. Continue rolling from the center out, until the dough extends just past the edges of the parchment and is no thicker than 1/16 inch; the crackers will puff significantly in the oven, so this thinness is key to keeping them thin and crisp.
- To Glaze and Cut: Trim away the ragged edges with a pizza wheel, and lightly brush the dough with glaze. If you like, use a docking tool to decorate the crackers. Cut into 1 1/2-inch squares with a pizza wheel (they will shrink in the oven), then carefully transfer the parchment and crackers to an aluminum half sheet pan. This can be done by lifting two opposite corners and pulling the paper taut, or by sliding the parchment and crackers on and off a pizza peel.
- To Bake: Sprinkle with salt and bake the crackers to a light yellow-brown, about 12 minutes, rotating the sheet pan halfway through to ensure even browning in the ultra-thin dough. The bake-time is highly variable , depending on the exact thickness of the dough, the type of baking sheet used, and any variations in dough thickness. Keep a close eye on the crackers as they bake, as they may brown and crisp faster depending on these variables. Cool to room temperature directly on the baking sheet; the crackers will not be crisp while warm. Repeat with the remaining dough (if rolled/cut in advance, the crackers won't shrink away from each other as they should). Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature up to one month.

Steps:
- Line bottom of a 9"-diameter pie dish or springform pan with a parchment paper round. Pulse 3 cups Wheat Thins (about 6½ oz.) in a food processor until finely ground. Add 1 Tbsp. granulated sugar and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt and pulse to combine. With motor running, drizzle in ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, slightly cooled, and process until combined and crumbly. (Alternatively, you can crush crackers in a large resealable plastic bag with a rolling pin until finely ground. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in sugar and salt, then butter.)
- Transfer mixture to prepared pan and press firmly into bottom and halfway up sides with a flat-bottomed measuring cup or glass. Chill crust in freezer while you make the filling, at least 30 minutes. Do ahead: Crust can be made 2 days ahead. Keep frozen.
- Using an electric mixer on medium speed or a large whisk, beat 12 oz. cream cheese, room temperature, and 6 Tbsp. sour cream or plain whole-milk Greek yogurt in a large bowl until very smooth. Add 6 Tbsp. powdered sugar, 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice, 1 tsp. vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract, and ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt and beat until incorporated.
- Using clean beaters or whisk, beat 6 Tbsp. chilled heavy cream in a small until stiff peaks form. Vigorously stir ½ cup peach or apricot jam in another small bowl with a spoon to loosen. Using a rubber spatula, fold whipped cream and jam into cream cheese mixture.
- Spoon filling into chilled crust and spread into an even layer. Cover cheesecake and chill at least 8 hours and up to 12 hours. (If you are in a hurry, you can freeze 2 hours, then chill in refrigerator 3 hours).
- Just before serving, toss 3 large peaches, thinly sliced, ¼ cup (packed) light brown sugar, remaining ½ tsp. vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract, and remaining ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a medium bowl. Let sit until juicy, 30-40 minutes.
- Slice cheesecake into wedges, wiping knife clean between cuts, and top with peach mixture. Do Ahead: Cheesecake (without peach topping) can be made 3 days ahead. Keep chilled, or freeze up to 2 weeks.
