Homemade Sourdough Crackers


Another sourdough product that's so easy to make: SOURDOUGH CRACKERS! [see video below!] We especially like these crackers baked 'til golden brown and crispy. You may like to add honey, herbs, or other seasonings to the recipe but this is just the basics here.

If you do not have a sourdough starter see this video to learn how to make your own:
Sourdough Starter

DIRECTIONS
Mix well 'til a stiff ball of dough is formed:
1c sourdough starter (fed within the last 12 hours
1/4c butter (or other fat)
Optional seasonings (herbs, spices, parmesan cheese, etc. These may be added later with the salt and baking soda or added now)
1c - 1 1/2c whole grain flour

Allow to sit on the counter for 8-12 hours, turn on to counter, break apart, sprinkle on 1/4t salt and 1/4t baking soda and knead 'til well combined.

Roll out thin using a rolling pin or pasta roller. Place on to greased baking sheets, sprinkle with kosher salt (or other salt) and optional seeds. An egg wash may be applied first to help the salt and seeds stick. Bake at 350 until golden brown. Check after 10 minutes and then every few minutes thereafter; the thinner ones may need to be removed sooner, the thicker ones may need to stay in longer.

Cool on a wire rack. Store in an air-tight container.
