Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams rolled oats
- 50 grams whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 60 grams unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons water
- optional toppings (e.g., sesame seeds, flaxseeds, or kosher salt)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, pulse the rolled oats until you achieve a coarse flour-like consistency.
In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix well.
Add the butter to the dry ingredients, using your fingers to rub it in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the honey and water to form a cohesive dough. If the mixture feels too dry, add up to 1 additional tablespoon of water, a little at a time, until the dough holds together.
Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to about 2-3 mm (1/8 inch) thickness.
Remove the top sheet of parchment paper and use a knife or cookie cutter to cut the rolled dough into your desired cracker shapes.
Transfer the cut shapes onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Sprinkle optional toppings like sesame seeds or kosher salt over the crackers, pressing gently to adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crackers are lightly golden and crisp.
Allow the crackers to cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
