Rosemary & Olive Oil Crackers

Chelsea Colbath
A 1-bowl recipe that uses simple pantry ingredients to make perfectly crisp, flaky, cheese platter worthy crackers.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour*
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour*
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 Tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary from 5-6 sprigs of rosemary
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 cup warm tap water
  • flaky salt for topping

Instructions
 

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line sheet pan with parchment paper (optional, for easier clean up). Set pan aside.
  • 2. Put all ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir well to combine. Once a shaggy dough is formed, use your hands to knead 3-4 times, or until dough forms into a ball.
  • 3. Sprinkle a clean counter top or large cutting board with flour, and roll out dough in a rectanlge the same size as your sheet pan. Transfer dough to the pan, and slice into desired shape/size crackers with a knife or pizza cutter. You can also leave it whole and break into rustic chunks after baking. Sprinkle unbaked crackers with flaky salt, if using.
  • 4. Bake crackers for 20-30 minutes, depending on how thick you roll the dough. Crackers should be a pale golden brown when you remove them from the oven. Let crackers cool completely, then serve or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Notes

*I liked the combination of all-purpose and white whole wheat flour best, though 2 cups of either flour will work just fine.
