Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dried dill weed
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, dried dill, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Drizzle in the olive oil and mix until evenly distributed.
Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together in a smooth, firm ball. Be careful not to overhydrate.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll the dough out into a thin sheet, about 1/8-inch thick.
Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into squares, rectangles, or your preferred cracker shape.
Carefully transfer the dough pieces onto the prepared baking sheet. Prick each cracker a few times with a fork to prevent puffing during baking.
Optional: Sprinkle sesame seeds over the crackers and press gently to adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the crackers are golden and crisp. Keep an eye on them toward the end of baking to avoid over-browning.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring to an airtight container for storage.
