Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup sourdough discard, unfed and room temperature (240 g)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, 125 g
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1-2 tablespoons water, if needed for consistency

Toppings

  • 1 tablespoon mixed dried herbs, such as oregano, thyme, rosemary, or Italian herb mix
  • Optional: flaky salt for finishing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Make the dough: In a bowl, stir together the sourdough discard, flour, olive oil, and salt until a soft dough forms. If the dough feels dry, add water 1 tablespoon at a time until it comes together.
    1 cup sourdough discard, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons olive oil, ½ teaspoon fine sea salt, 1-2 tablespoons water
  • Roll the dough: Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it as thin as possible, almost paper thin. The thinner the dough, the crispier the crackers will be.
  • Add the toppings: Remove the top sheet of parchment paper. Lightly brush the dough with olive oil, then sprinkle the herbs evenly over the surface and gently press them into the dough.

  • Score: Use a knife or pizza cutter to score the dough into cracker-sized squares.
  • Bake: Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the crackers are golden and crisp around the edges.
  • Cool and serve: Let the crackers cool completely before breaking them apart along the scored lines.
