Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Whole wheat flour
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 60 milliliters Water
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, ground black pepper, and salt.
Add the olive oil to the dry mixture and mix until it resembles a crumbly texture.
Gradually add the water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. It should form a firm, slightly sticky ball.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out as thinly as possible, about 1-2 mm thick.
Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into small squares or rectangles, about 5 cm in size, or your preferred shape.
Carefully transfer the cut pieces onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small space between each cracker.
If using sesame seeds, sprinkle them evenly over the top of the crackers and press gently to adhere.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crackers are golden brown and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let the crackers cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing.
