Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- ½ teaspoon salt, plus more to sprinkle on top
- 1 cup sourdough starter
- ¼ cup butter
- 2 tablespoons herbs or other flavors
- Oil to brush on top
Preparation
Mix ingredients except for oil and extra salt. Cut the butter into the flour. Add a bit of water (1 tablespoon at a time if your dough is not cohesive).
Wrap and refrigerate dough for at least 30 minutes, and preheat oven to 350° F.
Roll out dough until it is about 1/16-inch thick. Transfer to baking sheets. Lightly brush with oil and sprinkle with salt or other toppings.
Cut dough into squares or rectangles and prick each one with the tines of a fork.
Bake for 20–25 minutes until lightly brown. If the crackers aren’t crisp but are brown, turn down the heat to 150° and let them dry out.
No Sourdough? No Problem.
If you don’t have sourdough starter, you can follow the recipe above but substitute ½ cup of flour and ½ cup of water for the starter.
