Prep Time:15 minutes
Cook Time:15 minutes
Total Time:1 hour 30 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 food processor
  • 1 Rolling Pin
  • 1 Pizza Cutter
  • 1 offset spatula
  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 2 sheets of parchment paper
  • 1 fork

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour (plus about 2 tablespoons more for rolling)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt (plus more for sprinkling on top)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold)
  • 2 tablespoons sourdough starter (cold)
  • 3–5 tablespoons ice water

Instructions

  • Start dough. In a food processor, combine flours, sugar, salt, butter, and sourdough starter. Pulse until the mixture forms fine crumbs.
  • Slowly add water. Add ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, pulsing after each addition, just until the dough holds together when pressed.
  • Shape and chill.. Shape dough into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 3 days.
  • Roll out thin. Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll dough between two floured sheets of parchment to 1/16 inch thick.
  • Cut. Trim edges and cut into 1½-inch squares with a pizza cutter. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Prick with fork. Use a fork to prick each cracker twice. Sprinkle with additional salt if desired.
  • Bake. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and dry to the touch. Cool completely on the pan.

Notes

Crackers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. To re-crisp, bake at 300°F for 5 minutes.
Dough and baked crackers can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
