formula

crackers
  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter discard (127 g)
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (65 g)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (6 g)
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheese, i like parmesan or cheddar or a mix of both (30 g)
  • 20 g everything seasoning
everything seasoning
  • 3 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 3 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp dried minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp dried minced onion
  • 3 tbsp coarse salt

method

  • combine starter, flours, oil, and cheese together in a medium sized bowl. texture should be stiffer and dryer than cookie dough but still wet enough to knead.
  • let rest at room temperature for 4-8 hours.
  • preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • sprinkle 20 g everything seasoning on a table. take the dough, place on top of the seasoning.
  • as if you were rolling out pie crust, roll dough in the topping with a rolling pin. continue rolling, flipping over once, until it covers the surface area and shape of your baking sheet.
  • if it breaks apart, no worries! just stitch the jagged pieces together into one piece. sometimes i'm lazy and use a smaller rolling pin to roll directly onto the baking sheet.
  • optional: you can either cut the crackers now into squares (i use a bench knife) for a cleaner, more uniform look, OR break up the crackers after baking and cooling for a more rustic look.
  • bake for about 20-25 min, or whenever the edges curl up and turn golden brown.
  • remove crackers from pan, and let cool for 15 minutes on a cooling rack.
  • serve on a charcuterie platter, or enjoy on its own.
