Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup (60 g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup (60 g) whole-wheat flour
- 2 Tablespoons (12 g) rye flour
- 1 Tablespoon dried Herbs de Provence
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup water, at room temperature
- 3 Tablespoons (32 g) olive oil
- Flaked Maldon salt for topping
Instructions
- In a large bowl add all dry ingredients; flours, herbs and salt together (minus the Maldon salt), stir to combine.
- Next, add your wet ingredients, water and oil. Using a fork, mix dough until ragged.
- Using your hands, knead the dough until it comes together. Shape dough into a ball then wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350ËšF and line two baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside.
- Remove dough from the fridge and cut into 4 equal pieces. Using a rolling pin, roll each piece out (one at a time) into a long, oval shape. Roll dough out as thin as you can get it. Note: If your dough keeps springing back when you roll it, it hasn’t rested long enough.
- Transfer each piece onto the baking sheet, 2 ovals per baking sheet.
- Spray dough with water and sprinkle flaked Maldon salt over the tops.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until crackers are golden and crisp. Watch carefully.
- Let crackers cool completely. Once cooled, break pieces up into smaller crackers.
Notes
Store crackers in a container for up to 2 weeks.
Use a pasta roller to roll dough instead of a rolling pin.
If crackers go soft re-crisp in the oven at 350ËšF for 5-8 minutes.
