Servings 35
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups All purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Coarse sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 6 tbsp Sunflower seeds
- 1 ½ tbsp Olive Oil
- ½ cup Water
- Extra sea salt and sunflower seeds for topping if desired
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
-
Place flour, salt, sugar and sunflower seeds in a bowl, whisk to combine.
-
Stir in water and oil, stir until fully combined.
-
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured piece of parchment paper (slightly larger than your baking sheet.)
-
Roll the dough until it is about ⅛th of an inch thick. you may need to add a bit of flour because the dough will be very sticky. Try to keep the thickness as even as possible.
-
The edges tend to be thinner and so they may burn in the oven before the rest of the crackers are done. You can trim and discard, or keep for a rustic look in the batch.
-
Cut the dough into squares using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Brush with a little water and sprinkle with more sea salt if desired. Use a fork to prick each square a few times.
-
Transfer the dough, still on the parchment paper, onto a baking sheet and place it in the oven. Immediately reduce heat to 425.
-
Bake for 12-17 minutes, of until crackers are starting to become golden.
Recipe Notes
Tips:
This recipe makes about 30-40 crackers, so make a double batch (or more) if you are having entertaining or have a bigger family.
If you make a double batch, split dough in half and roll out in two batches.
Add a 2 tbsp of rosemary and thyme for a different flavor
Add a sprinkling of parmesan cheese to the tops before baking for a cheesy cracker.
