Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoons olive oil
Flaky sea salt
Seeds, chopped nuts, and/or dried herbs
Directions
Preheat your oven to 400ºF.
In a large bowl, stir together the flours, sugar, salt, and pepper. Add in the water and oil and stir into a dough. Turn the dough out onto your counter and knead lightly just until smooth.
Place the dough on a piece of parchment paper and roll out to about 1/8 inch thick. Transfer the parchment and dough to a baking sheet. Dampen your hands lightly with water and rub the top of the dough with your hands. Scatter with flaky sea salt and any seeds, nuts, and/or dried herbs you’d like, pressing down to adhere.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Allow the cracker to cool completely before breaking up into pieces.
