Easy sourdough discard crackers, that have the perfect amount of crunch! Forget about dry & boring regular crackers, once you start making sourdough crackers you will never go back!
1. In a mixing bowl, add sourdough starter, flour, salt & butter. Add as well as any herbs, if you are using them.
2. Mix until dough comes together.
3. Knead for a few minutes until dough becomes smooth, adding small amounts of flour if needed.
4. Wrap dough in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour (can be longer if needed).
5. Bring dough out and cut into two halves.
6. Preheat oven to 350 F
7. Roll out each half on lightly floured parchment paper. Trying to get it as thin as you can, about 1/16 of an inch. If it is not thin enough, your crackers can come out more like a pie crust.
8. Once it is rolled out, cut off uneven edges around the sides and then cut dough into 1 inch squares.
9. Poke each cracker with a fork, so that they don't puff up when they bake.
10. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle salt on to, and more herbs if you wish. I have used the butter to brush, it works but they do tend to become more like a pie crust so I prefer olive oil.
11. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, turning pan around half way through. Bake until golden brown.
